Lynn's encyclopedic knowledge of cabaret and presence at many of NYC's clubs distinguishes her as one of cabaret's loudest proponents. Lynn is also a singer herself, having performed at such NYC venues as the Algonquin's Oak Room and Central Park's famous Tavern On The Green.

JEFFREY C. WILLIAMS began broadcasts of THE RITZ BALLROOM HOUR in 1997 on Fairfield County's WICC. It was originally a showcase of the music and performers featured at the legendary Ritz Ballroom of Bridgeport, CT. To appeal to a broader and younger listener base, the show was revised, renamed AT THE RITZ! and moved to Fairfield University's WVOF 88.5FM. Jeff's guest roster has included such legendary artists as Les Brown,Sr., Artie Shaw, Frankie Laine and Connie Haines to the more contemporary artists playing the music of the Great American Songbook. Even such Hollywood celebrities as Mickey Rooney and Gene Wilder have been Jeff's guests! Jeff has also produced over 100 stage events in the Fairfield County area, including dinner theatre, cabaret shows, ballroom dances and children's events.
