15-Second Bio: Barbara Eisner Bayer lives in Woodstock, N.Y., with the dubious distinction of having attended neither rock festival. Gripped by a desire to be the next Sammy Davis, Jr., she began performing professionally at age 11 and has appeared in principal roles in opera and musical theater. Critics have called her "beguiling," "hilarious," "a glory singer whose soul suffuses heart-embracing songs, revealing wisdom and compassion," and "a soprano whose voice is rich and flawless" (shame the same can't be said about her investment portfolio). In addition to her Foolish musings, Barbara is a music critic for Amazon.com. For less cerebral pleasure, she can be found blasting backhands at unnerved opponents on any tennis court within reach.
