Early years
Brourman grew up in Pittsburgh, attending Taylor Allderdice High School.[1] She told a newspaper reporter, "I was a Broadway brat. I had stacks of original-cast records and memorized the scores of every Broadway show."[2] She majored in composition at Northwestern University and "was thoroughly trained in the classical piano".[2]
Stage
Brourman's Broadway credits include being dance composer for Working (musical) (1978).[3] She also composed the music for the off-broadway musical in I Married Wyatt Earp, based on the book of the same name. The musical ran at the Bristol Riverside Theatre in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.[4]
Personal appearances
Brourman has appeared in person both as an accompanist for artists, including Bob Dylan, Bernadette Peters and Dixie Carter, and as a performer "who sings in a tart pop-blues style reminiscent at times of Maria Muldaur."[2]
Recognition
Brourman won the Johnny Mercer Award for "Emerging American Songwriters."[5] Her work Dangerous Beauty was one of eight new musicals selected to be presented at the 18th National Alliance for Musical Theatre Annual Festival of New Musicals in New York City in October 2006.[6]
