Dionne Warwick

Musician/Philanthropist A living legend, Dionne Warwick is one of the music industry's most successful talents. Making her solo debut in 1962, she is recognized as the second most-charted singer on Billboard Hot 100 and one of the biggest hitmakers in the history of American music. Coming from a family of legendary vocalists and performers (she's the cousin of the late, great Whitney Houston, niece of Cissy Houston and kin to the revered gospel group, The Drinkard Singers), Warwick is a multiple Grammy Award-winner, Hall-of-Famer and recipient of countless other awards and prestigous accolades.
