Career
Waterfall grew up in northern Illinois and began studying piano at the age of eight. Her parents (both musicians) discouraged her from a musical career. She graduated from Stanford University in 1971 with a degree in visual art.
Despite her parents' advice, she began a career in music. She moved to Seattle, Washington, in 1975 and has toured nationally since 1983. [1]
In the 1960s, she spent several years as a student of Hari Das Baba and also studied Transcendental Meditation. She is a breast cancer survivor.[2]
