Multi-Grammy nominee, Broadway and recording artist, Maureen McGovern continues to thrill audiences with a voice that defies categorization. Known as “The Stradivarius Voice,” McGovern’s career includes more than 45 years of recordings, concerts, theater, film, television, radio and songwriting.
Maureen’s #1 Oscar-winning Gold Record, “The Morning After” from THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE, garnered her first Grammy nomination for Best New Artist, and her solo album, "The Pleasure of His Company", with Emmy/Grammy-winning jazz pianist Mike Renzi, earned her second Grammy nomination for Best Traditional Pop Vocal.
Other hits include, “Can You Read My Mind” from SUPERMAN, the Oscar-winning “We May Never Love Like This Again” from THE TOWERING INFERNO and “Different Worlds” from the TV series ANGIE. In addition to hearing her music in films and television, McGovern played the role of “Sr. Angelina” in the iconic comedy films AIRPLANE! and AIRPLANE II! THE SEQUEL.
Maureen made her Broadway debut in 1981 as “Mabel” in THE PIRATES OF PENZANZE, and went on to star as “Luisa” in NINE and “Polly Peachum” in THREE PENNY OPERA, co-starring with Sting. In 2005 she was nominated for a Drama Desk Award for her role as “Marmee” in LITTLE WOMEN: THE MUSICAL on Broadway.
Maureen’s current release, YOU RAISE ME UP – A Spiritual Journey, is an intimate yet powerful recording. McGovern says, “We are all a part of something much greater than ourselves and connected to each other soul to soul. Listen with your heart.”
