This program is a presentation of women who have made significant contributions to either the performance, composition, or inspiration of American song.

While many women have served as inspiration for great American songs (and this program includes some of the more significant of these), "Notable Women" also showcases significant composers and performers.

Covering everyone from Judy Garland and "Rosie the Riveter" to the prolific blind hymn writer Fanny Crosby, this program is an entertaining bled of fascinating information on both well-known and obscure women, along with a presentation of the beautiful songs they made famous. Included are: Jessie Bartlett Davis, Billie Holiday, Maybelle Carter, Dorothy Fields, Julie Andrews, and Carole King.
