193: Roslyn Kind KNOWS Music, Romance, Storytelling, Kindness & Barbra Streisand
Barbra Streisand's sister, Roslyn Kind, has been busy over the last few years producing and releasing songs such as "Save the Country," "Light of Love," and "It Only Takes a Moment: Kiss Me Now."
Roslyn is a dynamic, multi-talented entertainer who has forged a successful career in all facets of entertainment, from critically acclaimed recordings to sold-out performances on Broadway and in top concert venues and nightclubs worldwide. She has frequently shared the stage with her sister, Barbra, and her nephew, Jason Gould.
Most recently, Roslyn realized a dream of combining two hits, "Look of Love" and "The Island," resulting in a medley that celebrates love in all its forms while reinforcing the belief that love can be found at any age. Roslyn is proud and excited to offer a very special six-minute video short where she stars and serves as producer.
The London Times noted, "To say she is superb would be an understatement."
She began her performing career while still in her teens with the release of her first album, “Give Me You.” A whirlwind of performing activity followed, including engagements at the nation's top nightclubs, acclaim from Time Magazine, and three appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show leading up to her show-stopping New York debut at the Plaza Hotel's legendary Persian Room.
Roslyn’s extensive television credits include a humorously memorable turn as herself on CBS's “The Nanny.” This appearance also showcased her talent as a songwriter in a performance of her composition, “Light of Love.”
She has appeared on virtually every major talk/variety show, including The Tonight Show, Saturday Night Live, Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, and Good Morning America.
Roslyn also takes pride in her work for various animal welfare, Alzheimer's and AIDS-related charitable organizations, including HSUS, APLA and Broadway Cares Equity Fights AIDS, for which she contributed a song selection to Cabaret Noel, a volume in their annual series of holiday CD releases.
Roslyn has recently become a proud member of the She Angels, women supporting women by awarding grants to grassroots, female-founded, non-profit organizations that provide mentorship, funding, and resources to a diverse portfolio of women's and girls' causes.
The New York Post summed it up best: "She's so good on so many levels; it's difficult to categorize her. This elegant, beautiful, petite, dynamo delight rules the stage with a royal command that demands adoration from every seat in the house." A native of Brooklyn, New York, she currently resides in Los Angeles.
