She is only 26 years old today….
But she already has had an amazing career- with, hopefully, much more to come!
Surprisingly, this is one of my top rated and most viewed posts….so I’m going to re-post it again on this talented young lady’s birthday….

I love it when I find new performers and then learn they are already seasoned veterans…
Anna Kendrick was nominated for an Oscar this year for “Up in the Air.” She’s also been in the “Twilight” movies. I knew she looked familiar and discovered a couple of clips of earlier musical performances I had seen. I thought I would share.
Her she is as a very small child, singing a song from “Show Boat” at the “Leading Ladies” Broadway Benefit– with the “Cabaret” Kit Kat Club girls. She had just been nominated for a Tony Award for “High Society” when she appeared in the show on Broadway:
And here is the scene I loved and remembered well from “Camp”. I just didn’t realize it was her. She comes in after about 25 seconds:
This young lady has a long and exciting career ahead of her.
Lost in the 21st Century 
Scott, I was trying to find one where ou discussed several plays you saw in NYC, when I came across this one. Really enjoyed the Ladies Who Lunch (I did it once and would love to be in Company again).
And I absolutely loved the other clip of Anna as a child. THANKS!
