Kacey Cisyk
The opera trained singer Cassie Cisyk was born in Queens, New York to Ukrainian parents. Apart from working on commercials, she also recorded with well known artists, but her love was Ukrainian music. Kvitka (which in Ukrainian means 'Flower') recorded only two albums, 'Kvitka' and 'Kvitka Two Colors', which catapulted her into the top ranks of contemporary popular Ukrainian singers, born outside the country. She succumbed to cancer five days before her 45th birthday.
