What to Know

The opportunity to spend an evening with an iconic artist, a vocally gifted performer who not only played a significant role in music history but helped to shape modern music's path, too, doesn't come along all that often.

When it does?

Buy your ticket, take your seat, and prepare to not only bask in the chance, but also learn a lot about segments of songcraft and pop culture that you didn't perhaps know before.

Mary Wilson is such an icon. She's a Supreme, of course, and supremely talented, having superbly sung on a dozen singles that charted, Billboard-wise, at the very top. (Think of the artists seeking to have just one number one, or even a tune that charts at any spot.)

That illustrious career, and her time at Motown, will be some of the topics touched upon at The Paley Center for Media on Monday, Feb. 25. A Legendary Evening with Mary Wilson is set to be an evening of lively discussion, featuring Ms. Wilson at centerstage.

Not only will Motown and The Supremes serve as main points, but Ms. Wilson will also discuss "... the impact of television spreading her music to people of all ages during the sixties."
