“When Rosanna Tavarez was a little girl in New York’s Washington Heights, she’d have dance parties with her Dominican father on Friday nights, picking out the records and singing and dancing along with Earth, Wind and Fire and the Fania All-Stars.

Chana, as her family called her, would drive her mother crazy by incessantly playing and singing to the soundtrack of Annie, the Broadway musical about the indomitably optimistic orphan. She would fantasize and dress up in outfits that featured things like argyle socks and Puerto Rican themed sweatshirts over ballet tutus and tights.

Now, 20-some years later, Chana is still singing and dreaming.”*
