From her beginnings as a young dancer, a 1958 off-Broadway review, the national touring company of The Boyfriend in 1959, to 1967 when she began her career as a drama teacher in Newton MA and artist-in-residence in Boston area schools, Aline was a prolific composer of children’s music with a portfolio of more than 200 songs blending timeless, uplifting lyrics and lilting melodies. Her many musicals based on children’s literature, US history, myths and fairy tales were developed with a special part to play for every student.

Aline understood the power of music to build confidence, spur imagination, and to foster the unity that singing together brings.
