Peter Newman appeared with the Capitol Ballet in their April 22, 1970 performance at the Henderson A. Johnson Gymnasium of Fisk University.  It is not known if Newman performed elsewhere or with the company on other occasions. 

Note: It is not definite that Peter Newman was Black as we have no photographic or written evidence, but based on her status as a member of a historically Black company, she has been included in MoBBallet’s Roll Call.
