Lucy Simon (born 1943) is the older sister of musician Carly Simon. She began her professional career at the age of sixteen as a duo with sister Carly. Lucy Simon made her Broadway debut as the composer of The Secret Garden, for which she was nominated for a 1991 Tony Award for Best Original Score and a 1991 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music. She also wrote songs for the off-Broadway show A...My Name is Alice. Her parents were Richard L. Simon, co-founder of the publishing house Simon & Schuster and Andrea Heinemann Simon. In addition to her younger sister Carly, she has an older sister, opera singer Joanna, and a younger brother photographer Peter. Simon grew up in Fieldston, a section of Riverdale in the Bronx. Married to psychoanalyst David Levine, she has two children. She attended the Fieldston School, graduating in 1958 and Bennington College. Simon's setting of Wynken, Blynken, and Nod has been recorded by many diverse artists, including The Doobie Brothers, Mitzie Collins, and The Big Three (Cass Elliot, Tim Rose, and James Hendricks). In the seventies, Simon made two singer/songwriter-styled albums for RCA Records, the self-titled Lucy Simon, followed by Stolen Time.
