545 0 $aMinna Lederman Daniel (b. March 17, 1896, in Manhattan; d. October 29, 1995, in Manhattan) was an American writer and editor who specialized in music and dance. A major influence on 20th century music, she was a founding member of the League of Composers, a group of musicians and proponents of modern music. In 1924, she helped launch the League's magazine, The League of Composers review (in 1925 the name was changed to Modern music), which was the first American journal to manifest an interest in contemporary composers.
