Famous Quotes:

"Frank would set up a chair for me in the wings when I was done singing and I'd watch his show every night from there. Then he'd come off and ask me for observations. And he was totally serious about it. One night I asked him about all the tape marks all over the floor when he sang. And he asked the lighting guy to bring up the lights one by one and I saw how they 'hit the marks'. Frank just walked over to me and explained how lighting will enhance musical moments".

Biography/Timeline

1968

Budd began her singing career at the age of 12, taking the stage for amateur night at the Tamarack resort camp in the Catskills. There she was spotted by Producer Herb Bernstein, who became her personal manager and arranger. He continued to work with her through the next thirty years. After signing a contract for personal management, he also had her record a demo, signed her to a three-year contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and sent her to a voice coach. One of Bernstein's employees suggested her new stage name. Budd appeared on the Merv Griffin Show, The Ed Sullivan Show, The Tonight Show, and The Jim Nabors Hour. In 1968 she released the LP Child of Plenty on the MGM label and became a regular on the NBC TV summer series Showcase '68.
