Contains informations about Bert Hubbard and the IAAA (Chapter I/2: History of synchronized swimming, pages 40-55).
•
With the introduction of the International Academy of Aquatic Art (IAAA) in 1955 men were welcomed in synchronized swimming events, and Hubbard created and performed as aquatic artist until 2009 in various compositions, especially solos, at many IAAA festivals throughout North America.

In 1960 he choreographed two mixed trios Othello after Verdi's Otello and A Medieval Morality that were the first to receive top honors from IAAA in that category.
The IAAA was founded in 1955 by former synchronized swimmers from the USA in order to develop swimming as artistic, creative and non-competitive activity.
