Marie Osmond began performing in concert with her brothers when she was 14 years old. She co-hosted a variety television show with her brother Donny and later a daytime talk show named “Donny and Marie.” She also hosted her own variety show and co-hosted the TV series “Ripley’s Believe It or Not.” She became a top country singing artist in the 80s and with Dan Seals won the CMA vocal duo award in 1986. Marie was nominated for two Grammy awards and became the youngest female country artist with a number one debut song. She’ll introduce that song at the end of this podcast. Marie stopped at the studio one morning to talk about the Children’s Hospital Miracle Network Telethon.
