Born
into a well-known Australian show business family, Helen Reddy has been
performing professionally since she was a child.
 Five years after arriving in the United States, she signed with Capitol
Records. The very first track she cut was not only her first hit single but also the first
hit single for Andrew Lloyd Webber, "I Don't Know How To Love
Him."
However, it was a song she penned, "I Am
Woman,"
that became her first number one record. Helen won a Grammy Award for her performance and
the song is now recognized as the anthem for the feminist movement.
More top ten singles followed and songs like "Leave Me Alone"
(Ruby Red Dress), "Angie Baby," "Delta Dawn" and "You And Me
Against The World" on gold and platinum selling albums led to an
international multi-media career. Her television specials have been seen in more than
forty countries, while her starring role in the Disney film, "Pete's Dragon,"
continues to attract a new generation of fans.
With these successes solidly behind her, Helen returned to her
theatrical roots with starring roles in productions of "Anything
Goes,"
"Call Me Madam," and "The Mystery of Edwin
Drood."
Although Helen has been winning rave reviews for her theatrical work, she still continues
to appear in concert and with symphony orchestras. Her album "Center Stage" is a perfect meld of Helen's
distinctive recording sound with the Broadway songs she has now claimed as her own.

- Angie Baby
