Cheryl Metrick, versatile performer, celebrates 25 years in music, TV, radio, film and theater

LLOYD HARBOR, NY, May 7, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ --Cheryl Metrick, Actress, Singer, Songwriter, Artist, Poet and Author, has been recognized by Cambridge Who's Who for demonstrating dedication, leadership and excellence in performing arts.

A veteran performer, Cheryl Metrick has enjoyed a 25-year career as a professional singer, recording artist, and actress. Known for her ability to sing in various genres from pop, jazz and classic rock to musical theater and cabaret, she has entertained audiences in resort hotels across the Catskill Mountains and in numerous cabaret/jazz clubs and at charity events. She previously released a CD, "Cheryl Metrick Fantasy & Romance," and recently composed and recorded "There Are Angels," a song in which she performs with a string orchestra to an arrangement by her music director and arranger Frank Owens. A singer from the age of 16, Ms. Metrick considers being able to make a living out of her life's passion to be the most gratifying aspect of her career. She attributes her success to her husband, who always encouraged her to follow her heart.

Equally adept at television, radio, film and theater work, Ms. Metrick has lent her talents to various community theater productions, independent films, and commercials. She co-stars in "Hit or Miss Variety Show," a Long Island public access TV show that airs on Cablevision channel 20 every Sunday and Tuesday, and in a serio-comedy TV pilot called "High Hopes," whose trailer can be seen on YouTube.

Ms. Metrick is a member of the Screen Actors Guild, the American Federation of Television & Radio Artists, the Society of Singers, Inc., the Long Island Film/TV Foundation, and Filmmakers Connection. As she moves forward in her career, she hopes to record more songs and increase her involvement in writing. She is presently collaborating on a book with Jeree Wade, M.A., a life coach and fellow singer. The book, titled "On the Wings of Inspiration," is based on a collection of Cheryl's drawings and poems. The premise of the book is exploring your inner life through interpretive symbols and it will be published by Xlibris by the fall of 2010.

Cheryl also has a Facebook page called CHERYL METRICK: THERE ARE ANGELS, which she designed to promote her CD, "There Are Angels" as well as encourage conversation about angels in general. It now has a worldwide fan base.
