She and four other hostesses trained the original 200 Tour Guides and then became their supervisors after the Magic Kingdom opened on October 1st, 1971.
Upon leaving WDW in 1974, she spent 10 years as a vocalist with the band, Mothers Choice, which led to the release of 2 albums. One album with Mothers Choice and one for the soundtrack of the made for TV Christmas movie, The Magic of Christmas. She is married to Sam, the lead singer of Mothers Choice and together they have 3 daughters, all singers; Stephanie, Rock and Roll, Samantha, Opera and Sara, Musical Theatre. I guess you could say that music is their family business.
