She appeared on Perry Como’s Christmas show, where she sang with Como, and on Welcome Back Kotter, playing Arnold Horshack’s younger sister.
In 1979, she sang the national anthems for both the United States and Canada at the Major League Baseball All Star Game in Seattle, Washington. She also sang the American national anthem at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia for the fifth and final game of the 1983 World Series, in her capacity as a native of Philadelphia.
