Ms. Greenwood recently performed the National Anthem to open "NY's Bravest Night of Comedy," a benefit for the Thomas Elsasser Scholarship Fund for children of deceased FDNY members. Retired FDNY member and comedian Billy "Bingo" Dennis organizes this annual event. This year's benefit was hosted by Brian Kilmeade of the "Fox & Friends" Morning Show and raised $10,000 in scholarship funds.

Ms. Greenwood is a versatile, experienced, and socially conscious performer. She writes lyrics and music in many genres: blues, rock ´n roll, heavy metal, and gospel rock. She has offered concerts throughout the U.S. and abroad. She traveled and sang in former eastern bloc nations Yugoslavia, Hungary, and Poland during the 1980s, working with the underground movement and witnessing the fall of the iron curtain. In addition, she has brought her music to churches and to places not many other musicians would venture: hospitals, nursing homes, and prisons throughout New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.

Ms. Greenwood has played leading roles in Jesus Christ Superstar, Baby, Godspell, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Crucible, and others. She has made several TV appearances: "The Joe Franklin Show"; MTV's "A Day in the Life"; WTBN's "Variety Spot"; "The Natalie Cole Show"; and Channel 13's "Andrea Bocelli".
