The ALNM website and ads keep listing her as a Grammy winner. But I cannot find anywhere what she actually won for. She has several nominations, and some of her cast albums have won Grammys, but It doesn't look like she has any as a solo artist. Cast album Grammys do not go to the performers.
According to Wikipedia I'll Be Your Baby Tonight (1996) Angel Records – Grammy Award nominee Sondheim, Etc. - Bernadette Peters Live At Carnegie Hall (1997) Angel Records – Grammy Award nominee Bernadette Peters Loves Rodgers and Hammerstein (2002) Angel Records – Grammy Award nominee
Does she actually have a Grammy award or is ALNM being misleading?
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

It must be including the cast albums she's been on. Because on her website it just says that she's been nominated for her solo recordings, but has been part of cast recording that have won. Weird.
Who actually receives statues for the Best Musical Show Album? I know for the classical and opera categories some of the performers do, which is how Patti LuPone and Audra McDonald received Grammys for The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny.

The Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album has been awarded since 1959. The award is given only to the album producer, and to the composer and lyricist who has written at least 51% of the music which has not been recorded previously.
And didn't Patti and Audra win for the DVD of Mahagonny? That was so bizarre. Updated On: 7/6/10 at 05:09 PM
Yes, there was only a DVD release of Mahagonny, and that's what won. And it was bizarre.
