Barbara, a daughter of a secret agent, was raised in the nation's capital, Washington, District of Columbia, until her profound passion for theatre led her to secure a scholarship to study the revered works of William Shakespeare in England.
As her earlier aspirations of attending medical school began to wane, her first professional production as Liesl von Trapp in a stage adaptation of "The Sound of Music" ignited a spark within her, propelling her towards a life on the stage.
Since then, Barbara has traversed the globe, performing in a multitude of concerts, plays, and films, and has dedicated over a decade of her life to the Angel Fund, a noble endeavor aimed at preserving the African cheetah from extinction.
Her current residence is New York City, where she resides alongside a cherished bungalow on the Delaware River in Pennsylvania, a tranquil oasis where she indulges in her love of gardening, often with reckless abandon, under the watchful gaze of her faithful feline companion, Blu.
A self-proclaimed enthusiast of farm stands, Barbara finds solace in cooking as a form of therapy, and she also dedicates herself to the practices of dance and yoga, which bring her immense joy and serenity.
Throughout her illustrious career, spanning over twenty-five years, Barbara has had the privilege of lending her voice to over one hundred audio books, a testament to her dedication and passion for her craft.
Above all, Barbara remains eternally grateful for the unwavering support of her family, friends, and fans, whose encouragement and enthusiasm have contributed to her career's vibrancy and fulfillment.
