New York Public Library for the Performing Arts’ Roberta Pereira

The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, located at Lincoln Center in New York City, opened in 1965. It houses collections like the Jerome Robbins Dance Division, Music and Recorded Sound Division, Billy Rose Theatre Division as well as a circulating collection. According to the branch’s executive director, Roberta Pereira, it houses the largest known collection of theater photography in the world.

This year, as the institution celebrates its 70th year, the Tony Awards have granted the library a Tony Honor for Excellence in the Theatre. Host Ruthie Fierberg, executive editor of Broadway News, spoke to Pereira about what makes the library special and what programs and exhibits to expect in the coming months.
