By: Stephen Sorokoff Dec. 23, 2013
Karen Wyman, who was a national sensation for a short time in the late '60s and early '70s before disappearing unexpectedly from the scene, has re-entered the earth's atmosphere. The rocket-voiced phenom, who electrified a packed Metropolitan Room just returned with her new show, "The Second Time Around." Check out photos from the concert below!
In 1969, when she was just 16 (now those two numbers are reversed), Wyman astonished Dean Martin and his national television audience. In short order she made appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, and on shows hosted by Carol Burnett, Jim Nabors, Glen Campbell, Dick Cavett, David Frost, Merv Griffin and Mike Douglas. She performed in nightclubs and recorded two albums and several singles for Decca Records, and had another on the way. Then the meteor flared out. A different kind of non-belty female singer was coming up, and Wyman also opted to start a family.
