Annaleigh Ashford & Stephanie Rossi

It might be faster to name everything that Annaleigh Ashford HASN'T done, but let's just summarize her work and say that she IS an incredible actor and singer; star of the stage, the TV, and the movies, with credits including WICKED, KINKY BOOTS, YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU (Tony-winner!), BAD EDUCATION, B POSITIVE, and AMERICAN CRIME STORY; and will star in the Broadway revival of SWEENEY TODD alongside Josh Groban in February 2023. On this episode, Annaleigh has invited her high school teacher Ms. Rossi, whose work as a social studies and psychology teacher – and as an all-around guide and mentor – helped launch Annaleigh into the world, and on to her extraordinary career.
