Her newest musical, which opened in New York in summer of 2011 is SISTAS, the story of African-American women through popular music.
Dorothy Marcic started her career in the arts as a production assistant on the TV program, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, while in college. She has appeared on C-SPAN, CMT, and Bravo Network.
