| Lisa Simpson is a survivor. She has
been through many trying times and still managed to come out on top. Lisa was born in St.
Louis, Missouri, The youngest of three children. But her family moved to Southeast
Missouri when she was very young. Lisa's father is a General Baptist Minister, so she grew
up in church singing in the choir and singing solos in her church."There was always
singing around the house, My oldest brother and sister were always singing , so I just
joined in". Her first solo experience
outside of church came in her 6th grade Christmas Program. She sang"I'll Be Home For
Christmas" and received a standing ovation."From that moment on I was hooked on
performing and being the extrovert that I am, I sang for everyone that would listen".
During her High School years, Lisa sang in the choir and sang many solos. After
graduation, she married and started a family. But the marriage ended after 5 years. This
left Lisa a single mother of three at the age of 23."That was very tough for me,
There were times I didn't think we'd make it,but I put my trust in the Lord and with the
support of my family we pulled through it". |
