I Review Musical Memoirs of Beloved Women Entertainers.
Newest Book: Julie Andrews' 'Home Work' - a memoir by Julie (with Julie's Music) A Sequel to her memoir of her child hood, 'Home Work' begins with Julie's Arrival in Hollywood. She recounts fun stories of playing Mary Poppins, Maria, in Sound of Music, Thoroughly Modern Millie, playing opposite Paul Newman in Torn Curtain and More. As always, I perform well loved tunes from the shows recalled.

I review autobiographies and sing the music of:
Carol Burnett, 2 by Julie Andrews, Rosemary Clooney,
Carol Channing, Linda Ronstadt, Peggy Lee and Shirley Jones.

In December I offer a comedy-music show -
Mrs Santa's Holiday Swing - a - long - Jazzy arrangements of holiday favorites with comedy from the ORIGINAL Desperate Housewife: Mrs Claus!
