Stephanie Mills has distinguished herself as an actress and performer who is at home on the Broadway stage as she is in the recording studio. Five gold albums and hits such as "I Have Learned to Respect the Power of Love," "Home," "Something in the Way (You Make Me Feel)" and "Never Knew Love Like This Before" have become enduring classics. Her critically acclaimed appearances in shows like the Tony Award-winning The Wiz and Your Arms Too Short to Box with God have assured her of a consistently loyal following among fans, industry insiders and critics.
