So the last thing I have in the biography section is that Bernadette is slated to be Mama Rose. Before I update it, I just wanted to see what all you think should be included.

I was going to include:

Received Tony nomination for Gypsy
Dewey Doo-It
Released Sondheim Etc Etc
Loss of Michael

Suggestions?

I'd also add after the release of Sondheim Ect Ect that she toured for a extended amount of time and will make her Lincoln Center debut in May 2006.

Well technically she was touring before the release of the album and touring is pretty typical for her every year unless she is in a show.

It Runs in the Family was released in 2003. That should probably be mentioned. Oh, and also her participation in the Sherry! studio cast recording.

I'd like to see you include the television pilot that wasn't picked up, just for historical purposes:

"Adopted"–pilot for ABC-pilot taped March 31, 2005; costarring Christine Baranski

Hmm, I didn't realize it, but "The Land Before Time: The Great Longneck Migration" where she voices "Sue", the longest of the longnecks, was released in Dec. 2003, so perhaps you could include it too.

I was/am responsible for updating Bernadette's Bio on Broadwayworld.com, so feel free to check there. I update it as often as I can.

Although, if I happen to be missing any info on there, or if there is a mistake, please anyone feel free to tell me.Bernadette Peters Bio on Broadwayworld.com

The BWW bio looks pretty good Christine. I only see a few things. She was nominated but didn't win a Grammy for I'll Be Your Baby Tonight, but she was nominated for Golden Globes for Silent Movie and All's Fair (the same year in fact) and she won a Cable Ace Award for the televised version of SITPWG. I believe Sherry was nominated for a Grammy and so was Sondheim, etc. and both ITW and Sunday won Grammys. Alice was a theatrical movie not a TV movie and La Strada was, for its one night, on Broadway.

Also in the award section you don't list the Drama League Award. A person can only win that once, but she was the first performer in a musical since Richard Kiley in 1966 to get the award. Since then they've created another category to recognize musical performers.
