BIOGRAPHY
Kathy Reid-Naiman has been working and playing with children for a very long time. She started dancing and teaching play party games in the 1970s and has been influenced by many traditions along the way. She spends most of her working hours with preschool children teaching music and movement and has recorded 11 CDs for that age group.

Hannah has been actively involved in the folk music community since birth, and has been leading songs and workshops for teenagers and adults since her youth at various music and dance camps Pinewoods (MA), Ogontz (NH) and Christmas Country Dance School (KY).
