Check Out the Talented Liza Lee!

I want to tell all of you about a very talented recording artist working with the Society for Women's Health Research, Liza Lee.

Here is the beginning of Liza's story:"What makes a thirty-one year old singer and songwriter want to donate all of the proceeds from her new jazz project to the Society for Women’s Health Research?

My dream of a fulfilling singing career had become a reality. Around this time I had the opportunity to travel to and perform in the Dominican Republic. It was a great experience, but while there I contracted what turned out to be Dengue Fever, which is similar to malaria. It took me several weeks to even begin to recover. I use the word “begin,” because I never did seem to recover fully. ..."
