Accompanist -
Percussion (2000)
Stephanie was born in Brooklyn, NY, the
granddaughter of Russian, Polish and German Jewish immigrants. She
played percussion for the Sacred Heart Crusaders Drum and Bugle Corps
(Manville, NJ) and in the Brigham Young University Cougar Marching Band
(Provo, UT). She states that it is an urban myth that Michael Jackson
is a graduate of Brigham Young. After college, Stephanie traveled the
U.S., ending up in Sarasota in 1986, and began writing band reviews and
op-ed pieces for Eclipse magazine and the Shady Lady Yellow Pages. She
now writes for the Gazette (Tampa, FL) and plays percussion for the
GCMC and the Trinity MCC's Praise Team. Stephanie now lives in
Sarasota's historic Gillespie Park Neighborhood with her husband, Fred
Murray, in a classic Florida house
circa
1925. She has two sons, Scott and Brian, from her first marriage, and
is the proud grandma of Dylan and Anna.
