Since winning the Best New Artist Grammy in '71, Carly Simon has had a successful career atop the charts. She rose to fame with hits like "Anticipation" (bought by Heinz for its ketchup ads) and has written several movie theme songs, including the Oscar-, Golden Globe- and Grammy-winning "Let the River Run" for Working Girls. She was also the first pop artist commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera Guild and the Kennedy Center to write an opera. Simon has a new CD, "This Kind of Love," and is planning to tour soon with her son Ben.
