Career

Kind recorded her debut album two months after graduating from high school in June 1968. The album, titled "Give Me You", was released in January 1969, at the same time as her first professional performance, at the Hungry I in San Francisco.

Kind's New York debut was at the Plaza Hotel’s legendary Persian Room in 1969, where she played to a packed house that included her half-sister, Barbra Streisand. She performed on the April 16, 1977, episode of Saturday Night Live.

Kind has spent the past several decades touring internationally as a cabaret singer and entertainer. She was recently featured in Barbra Streisand's 2012 national tour, Back to Brooklyn, and 2013 European tour, Barbra Streisand LIVE, during which she sang a duet with her half-sister.
