Born:
March 27, 1970
Biography:A songstress possessing a remarkable eight-octave vocal range who in the early '90s excelled to become one of the top female vocalists of the decade, "Mariah Carey"'s rocky transition from musician to actress played a key role in fueling a much-publicized nervous breakdown in late 2001. And though her cinematic debut in "Glitter" (2001) may have not been quite the crossover success the aspiring actress had hoped for, as a remarkably talented vocalist Carey continues to maintain her supportive fan base as a result of her dynamic voice and exceptional songwriting abilities. Born the daughter of a former opera singer and vocal coach in Long Island, NY, in 1970, and named after the song "They Call the Wind Mariah" from the popular "Lerner" and Loewe musical "Paint Your Wagon" (1969), Carey began singing at the age of four, and writing her own songs by the time she was attending Oldfield Middle School....
