About Elsie Fogerty
Anne Elizabeth "Elsie" Fogerty was a British teacher who departed from the customary practice of "voice and diction", also called elocution. At that time, "Voice and Diction" focused entirely on the mouth and nasal cavity to produce speech sounds. Fogerty's technique ended up focusing on the entire body and voice to produce speech. At first, she used just the lungs to resonate the sound, but soon included the whole body, because she discovered that posture and movement also affected speech. It ultimately became known as the "Body and Voice" technique. She was the founder and principal of the Central School of Speech and Drama in London from 1906 to 1942.
