Nancy Lamott (1951-1995) was one of the greatest singers of American Popular Standards. Her remarkable career was cut short when she died twenty years ago. At age seventeen, she was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. At the height of her popularity Nancy performed at the most prestigious clubs in New York, and sang twice at the White House for President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. Her recordings are loved by thousands of fans around the world.

CROHN'S & COLITIS FOUNDATION OF AMERICA is a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to finding the cures for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. The Greater New York chapter serves Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx funding research, raising awareness, and providing education and support to IBD patients and their families.
