Many of you will know Trisha as she has been an active member of Hollywood Temple for many years and has given many performances there, some of which we have had the pleasure to hear. A trained soprano, Trisha was a seasoned stage and film actress when she began her study of classical voice. She has performed in recital and concert venues throughout Southern California including events for the Italian-American community, charitable organizations, and Self-Realization Fellowship. A featured vocalist with the annual San Gennaro Festival of Los Angeles, Trisha also takes part in an outdoor concert in her native Iowa almost every year. Several international performances include recitals at the Villa Caletas Resort at Punta Leona, Costa Rica, and in Italy at the Chiesa San Rocco in Cansano (Abruzzo) and the Castel Vincigliati near Florence.
