Robin Moss Manning known in the entertainment world as “just Robbie”

showed up last year at a fantastic event in Palm Springs for a friends birthday where there were great entertainers. She was one of the entertainers that night with a magnificent talent. I was blown away when I heard her sing. She is going to be one of my entertainer for the Nafe Success Up Women's Conference April 22, 2017 at the Corporate Room in Wildomar, CA. (go to www.wrnafe.com).  You can see all the bios of the 6 keynote speakers and entertainers as well as purchase your tickets if you are using a credit card.

Her very first performance on the live stage took place at the Riverside Municipal Auditorium in 1959, at the age of 3, in a Children’s Theater Production. At age 4, she began studying traditional ballet, and excelled in acrobatics.

In middle school, she took theater classes at the local High School. In her first year at Poly High School, she tried out for a play, landed the part…and she was smitten.

Hanging out at garage band rehearsals, she discovered she could sing, and joined her boyfriend’s Rock Band. By her Senior Year she graduated early, and at 17, she moved to Malibu to pursue a Theater Degree at Pepperdine University. She did a 4 year program in 3 years and moved to Hollywood.

She needed a “day job” to sustain herself, and landed a job at Chastain-Park-Citron, one of the most prestigious talent agencies in the industry. It was there she met her husband to be, John Baer. He was an amazing musician and music producer. They married in 1979. She was 23. He was already creating great music, and they quickly discovered that she was the lyricist of the team.

After having done their first film score Cruising, with Al Pacino, they realized they were a musical match made in heaven, and built their first recording studio. They worked around the clock, writing original songs and music for film and television from 1979-1992.

Although they divorced in 1989, they still work on music projects and performance together, to this day. In an effort to further develop her writing skills, she took a Story Analyst Class at UCLA. Her professor was impressed by her ability to understand, synopsize and relay a story, so he offered her an opportunity. She happily accepted a job as a subcontractor for Disney, analyzing scripts. It’s there where she fell in love with story structure, development and the telling of it.

She went on to remarry in 1992, to another musician named John Manning and magically they shared the same passion for music.

While getting to know her new digs, and wanting to keep her hand in entertainment, she created a Karaoke Show that she and John ran together on Tuesday nights. At the same time keeping herself back in shape, she got involved in Martial Arts and trained for 4 years in Shito Ryu Kai, a traditional Japanese Karate.

After much trial and tribulation, she and John separated. Throughout the years, she has had the extreme privilege of performing for royalty and dignitaries across the globe, at private parties and major events. She continues to teach vocal performance, and sing and perform on a regular basis. Her love for the arts is stronger than ever with a smile on her face and a song in her heart!
