Valerie was thrilled to have been this year’s Grand Marshal for the

Sunday, October 8, 2006 in Morris Park.
"It’s a great way to celebrate my Italian heritage and my Bronx roots. Plus it’s fun to know that I’m following in the Grand Marshal footsteps
of some of our most colorful natives such as Regis Philbin,
Sonny Grosso and Vic Damone."

Girls
Just Want to Have Fun
And they did when
Valerie Smaldone (left), award-winning radio personality
on 106.7 Lite-FM hosted a private party at Tony’s
di Napoli on Friday to welcome Cyndi Lauper to
Broadway. Lauper arrived shortly after the curtain
fell on the first night of previews for her show
The Threepenny Opera, and once there, “she-bop”ped
into the wee hours with friends and cast mates. |
If you have any interest
in the voice-over world, please purchase, "Secrets
of Voice Over Success". Valerie joined her colleagues
in the business, and contributed a chapter to this
compilation. Proceeds go to benefit the Alzheimer's
Association. The book is available at major book stores
and amazon.com
