Biography

Early years

Born in Oshkosh, Wisconsin,[1] Sullivan began singing in church and later at George Nelson Tremper High School in Kenosha, Wisconsin where she sang in the choir and also played cello in the orchestra.

Musical career

She was discovered by Lawrence Welk while attending the University of Wisconsin–Madison,[1] where she was the local Miss Champagne Lady in a show that went on the road. She was hired in 1976 after completing her studies. She sang numerous solos, and often was paired with Dick Dale in various numbers.

As a Christian music artist, she released several Gospel music albums and has performed for charitable originations as World Vision. Kathie also performed in a one-woman show as Jane Long around her home in Dallas, Texas.

Today, she continues to perform, mostly at retirement communities for seniors and has hosted wraparounds for Welk repeats aired on PBS.

Personal life

Once believed to be romantically involved with Andy Kaufman, with whom she appeared on a 1981 episode of Fridays[2] (the incident was a hoax),[3] she married in 1986 to high school boyfriend Hugh Tollack and is the mother of two daughters.
