Barbara Dixon is a creative force -- passionate, headstrong, and occasionally frightening. She possesses a bucket of unforgettable tunes, a large rolling suitcase full of unbelievable stories, and the unquenchable thirst to perform. Upon Ms. Dixon’s arrival, every acquaintance becomes her devotee, every room becomes her stage, every truck stop coffee shop becomes her banquet. She speaks in a Mid-atlantic accent and very jazzy. Always boastful.
