About Kaye Stevens

Kaye Stevens was an American singer and actress. Her big break in show business came at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, when the headliner for the night, Debbie Reynolds, became ill and Stevens filled in for the night. She then went on to do small shows in New York City at the Plaza Hotel's Persian Room and the Waldorf Astoria, and Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip. In her last 20 years, Stevens founded a Christian ministry and only performed Christian or patriotic music.
