--Barbara

Since I began working with Barbara almost thirteen years ago, people have often asked me, "Is Barbara Mandrell as nice as she seems to be?" I always answer with a resounding YES.

But the truth is, Barbara is more than just a nice person. She has a sensitive and caring spirit that has carried her from being a multi-talented artist to television star to show-stopping entertainer.

But what really separates Barbara from her peers is her ability to reach people from all walks of life. She is loyal, considerate, and true to her word, all rare qualities in this business.

Working with Barbara and being her friend is as comfortable as sitting in a beautiful room, drinking a cup of coffee and enjoying the warmth of the Morning Sun.
