What can I say about JoAnn Castle? A most consummate performer! Everyone knows she can play that piano like no one else; from Classical favorites to the greatest Honky Tonk sounds. But many people have no idea what a fabulous jazz singer she is. She interprets a song as heartfelt as Billie Holiday. My sisters and I just love to hear her sing and are her most ardent fans ...of everything she does.

She came to Lawrence Welk Show a few years after we had joined the show, and we became fast friends. We all feel like we went to (Left to right) Kathy, Janet, Dee Dee, Peggy the same school of early Television at ABC Studios together.
