Marian Anderson had a gift for singing from an early age. Her aunt Mary helped her book paid gigs as early as age 6. When her family could no longer afford lessons, the community and church pooled their resources to help develop Marian's talents. From there, her career blossomed, and she performed all around the globe, breaking down race barriers and moving society forward!
