Music is Kristin’s first love, and anyone who has spent five minutes in her presence, even at a stage door, has probably heard her sing a note or two. She began singing in church as a child, then continued in the school choir, and moved on to a more focused vocal study in college where she was introduced to voice teacher Florence Birdwell. Mrs. Birdwell horrified poor teenage Kristin at her audition, when she told her, “I can’t wait to teach you how to sing!” She was the teacher who taught Kristin that good singing was more than just a pretty voice, and helped shape her into the powerhouse that she is today. After winning her Tony for YOU’RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN, Kristin signed a recording contract with Sony Classical, and has put out two albums, with a third on the way. She has also lent her voice to a slew of other recordings and concerts, and currenltly keep up her vocal study (yes, that's right, even Kristin still takes voice lessons) with vocal coach Joan Lader.
