Damaris Peters Pike as Doris Day at Sanibel Library
Damaris Peters Pike’s Women of Note Series “Que Será, Será—Remembering Doris Day”
Contrary to the popular image of the smiling girl next door, Doris Day’s story is full of pain and sorrow along with great success. Singer and musical historian Damaris Peters Pike, creator of Women of Note, brings Ms. Day to life for an hour of stories and song. This recounting of Doris Day’s youth in Cincinnati, her start as a big band singer, and amazing rise to stardom in movies includes several well-loved songs associated with the star such as “It’s Magic.” “My Secret Love.” and “Sentimental Journey.”
This program is open to the public. There is no registration required and no additional cost to participate.
Damaris Peters Pike is Professor of Music Emerita at Hiram College, where she founded the Opera Workshop and directed the Hiram College Madrigals and College Choir. In 1988, she founded The Women of Note programs to take her knowledge of music history to the public with the belief that the best way to understand a period in history is to study important characters and their times.
