Three years later, she had memorized more than 500 songs and won first place in the Discovery National Television Competition. At 14, Ms. Pesce appeared on the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon. She has performed with such notables as Debbie Reynolds, Rich Little, Buddy Greco, Pat Boone, Lew King and Barbara Stanwyck.
