The legendary Melba Moore!

The ReadyWriter

Tony Award winner, Soprano songbird, and 3-time Grammy nominee, Melba Moore who has conquered Broadway in memorable roles such as, HAIR (1967), PURLIE (1970) and became the first Black woman to inhabit the role of Fantine in LES MISERABLES (1995) has conquered it all.

Born October 29, 1945, Beatrice Melba Smith, Moore grew up in the Harlem section of New York until age nine, when her mother remarried, jazz pianist Clement Leroy Moorman and the family relocated to Newark, New Jersey.  Her countless hits such as “Read my lips”, “This is it” “Fallin” and my personal favorite, “You stepped into my life” has helped to make her a global success for more than fifty years.

Now in her riveting new book, “This is it” Ms. Moore takes you on the highs and lows of her career and talk about how she’s had to pivot time and again in an industry that didn’t always know what to do with a petite powerhouse with a big voice.

Melba’s new memoirs, “This Is It – Marvelous…And Getting Better”, will be available in November 2025 via Amazon Books. Ms. Moore shares many aspects of her career and life, as well as how she navigated the successes and challenges that came her way.

This is it….

Melba will join me this week on “Conversations Of A Sistah” as we discuss her book and illustrious career. Sound off in the comment section below, with the questions you’d like me to ask Ms. Moore.
