Anna Epstein-Kravis began studying classical piano at 8 years of age. At 15 she began learning folk banjo and by age 16, was writing and performing songs at folk music gatherings and festivals, as well as teaching banjo. Interest in theater and cabaret brought her to NYC, where she performed in clubs, acted in off-Broadway theater productions and taught banjo at the New School for Social Research and the 92nd Street Y. Anna joined with friend, Janice Buckner, to form the acclaimed musical duo Sweet Rose Revue. Throughout the 80's, they performed thousands of concerts internationally, and released a highly praised recording of original songs. The duo has reunited for adult concert offerings, after a 12-year hiatus.

Anna performs year round for children and family audiences throughout the Northeast at museums, libraries, park, arts centers, early childhood centers, schools, and festivals. She offers early childhood teacher training music workshops nationally for educational organizations, such as NAEYC. Credits include the Brooklyn Children's Museum, the Queen Elizabeth 2 Ocean Liner, the Hudson River Museum, appearances on Sing Me a Story TV show and much more. Anna has just completed recording a CD of original songs for adults, entitled The Dream Collection, due to be released in early 2003. She is soloist, as well as musician, along with her husband, guitarist and mandolin player Miles Kravis, at weekly Sunday church services at a church in Melville, NY.
