Liza Minnelli

Liza Minnelli, born in 1946, is an American performer with a commanding presence and a powerful voice, earning an EGOT distinction and a French Legion of Honour. Daughter of Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli, she began her career in New York City in 1961, quickly gaining acclaim with her Tony-winning role in "Flora the Red Menace." Minnelli's collaborations with composers John Kander and Fred Ebb shaped her iconic stage persona, celebrated in hits like "Cabaret" and "New York, New York." Though her film career saw mixed success, including an Oscar for "Cabaret," her stage and concert work, from Broadway to Carnegie Hall, cemented her status as a gay icon and legendary entertainer.
