Marian Anderson - Snoopycat: The Adventures of Marian Anderson's In Stock Doug RileyLegendary contralto Marian Anderson repeatedly broke the race barrier in classical art music, most notably when she performed on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1939 after being refused a concert spot at Constitution Hall. But she also loved her cat. This is Snoopycat's story, written by Frida Sarsen Bucky and narrated and sung by Anderson.
