Mary Wilson of The Supremes could never have imagined all the successes she would enjoy when she was thirteen years old, growing up in the housing projects in Detroit, when she joined with classmates
Diana Ross and Florence Ballard to form the Primettes, who changed their name to The Supremes when they joined MOTOWN Records in 1961. The Supremes became the most successful American vocal group of all time, with 33 top 40 hits and 12 No. 1 smash hits, including "Where Did our Love Go," "Baby Love," "Come See About Me," "Stop in the Name of Love," and "You Can't Hurry Love."

A best-selling author, "Dream Girl: My Life as a Supreme" and the follow up "Supreme Faith...Someday We'll be Together," set sales records in the genre. In 2003, Mary was named a U.S. Cultural Ambassador with the mission of improving cross cultural understanding internationally, and she is in high demand on the lecture circuit with her "Dare to Dream" presentation focusing on reaching goals and overcoming adversity. Mary Wilson has been an inspiration to millions around the world, and audiences will be thrilled to see her with her life-long friends, The Four Tops.
PETER LEMONGELLO, Jr. is one of the most versatile singer/dancer/performers to emerge in decades. He represents the new generation committed to keeping the great music of the 60s alive. Peter's fan base is skyrocketing since his recent national tv appearances on American Idol and the PBS "My Music" series. He was inspired by his father, the first singer to sell more than 1 million albums on television in the 1970s, but
Peter is his own person with a unique style, personality and passion for the music. He will energize the crowd and is the ideal opening act for The Four Tops.
