I’m OVER THE MOON to be the 2019 winner of the Fred Ebb award, along with Angela Sclafani!!

Kate Baldwin will present the award at the Fred Ebb Foundation's ceremony December 2

Fred Ebb is an icon of the theater whose songs I’ve sung in my head, on the street, in my bedroom since I was a kid growing up in Miami. After living in New York for 12 years now, it still makes me tear up every time I hear “New York, New York” and hear the lyric “If you can make it there you’ll make it anywhere,” a mantra for aspiring artists in New York that rings so true and has been a guiding light for me during many dark moments of doubt. This is a very VERY difficult business to break into, and it takes years and years of trying and trying without results, many failures, many dead ends, and a lot of luck. And while I know things like this award are mostly luck, it’s wonderful to have that affirmation to keep going and keep writing. Thank you to the Fred Ebb Foundation for this honor!
