Merrill Womach

My name is Merrill Womach and I am from Spokane, Washington. I was blessed with a singing voice which has the range of FOUR octaves (that is over TWICE the norm!) and began singing publicly at the age of 6. I have performed in concert, on stage, screen, and on telision all across America. On Thanksgiving day November 23rd, 1961 I was in a fiery airplane crash that almost took my life. (But luckily not my voice!)I was burned beyond recognition- the Doctor said that My "head was as big as a basketball", and "...it looked as if someone had taken a marshmallow and had left it on the fire too long." I have had over 50 skin graft operations since, but despite losing most of the skin on my face I literally rose from the ashes to continue my career of singing!
