Becky Orsatti was born to sing. She eventually found herself on stage, singing and dancing in a variety of shows throughout her youth and teenage years. She performed in Lucille Russo's "Stars of Tomorrow" annual shows at the Garder Pier on the Atlantic City Boardwalk, and the Al Albert Show, just to name a few.
Born and raised in Atlantic City, she worked in the pharmacy department as a technician and secretary to support herself while she established her career as a performer.
She kicked off her career singing with orchestras such as Paul Mann and Meyer Davis. Other highlights of her early career include being the opening act for Danny Thomas, Teresa Brewer, Patti Page, Pat Henry Professor Irwin Corey; filled in for Diahann Carol with Jackie Gayle, and Fred Travalina. Becky also sang for the Miss America Pageant parties and ball at Convention Hall as well as the grand-opening of Caesar's Casino & Hotel in Atlantic City.
There were also engagements in New York, Las Vegas at the Sahara and Tropicana Hotels, California and New Mexico. She dedicated her time to entertain for wounded American Veterans and various non-profit organizations. Becky served as the treasurer of the Atlantic City Musician's Union for ten years.
In 1971 Becky met the love of her life, Arnold Orsatti Jr, and they married in 1989; putting her singing career on hold. In 2006 her husband encouraged her to re-establish her career and fulfill her dream by recording her own CD, which she did. It was finished when he passed away and it is now dedicated in his memory. Ballads inspire Becky as they tell a story of life and love. She also enjoys jazz, pop, standards - and her favorite - Big Band Music.
Of all the accomplishments in her life, she looks at every day as a new beginning and embraces with the knowledge and wisdom that life has afforded her as it has shaped her into the woman she is today.

The Ms. Senior America Pageant is
the world's first and foremost pageant to emphasize and give honor to
women who have reached the "Age of Elegance." It is a search
for the gracious lady who best exemplifies the dignity, maturity and
inner beauty of all senior Americans. The Ms. Senior America philosophy
is based upon the belief that seniors are the foundation of America, and
our most valuable treasure. It is upon their knowledge, experience and
resources that the younger generation has the opportunity to build a
better society.
