REAGAN CLAIRE SMITH of ATHERTON
Ten-year-old YouTube star conquers blood disorder while singing career takes off Youngest winner in 2012 competition of over 1000 singers and plans to be a “singing doctor” For Release: October 17, 2012 PALO ALTO, Calif. -- “She was once famous for being sick. Now she’s famous for singing.”
Mom Sandra Smith is talking proudly about 10-year-old daughter Reagan Claire Smith, of Atherton, Calif., who sings “I Wanna Know” in her new YouTube and iTunes hit. It’s a song that makes non-dancers dance while taking on life’s marvels, from shooting stars to sunrises. Reagan’s performance of a song she co-wrote reflects wise-beyond-her-years wonder, perhaps earned from a struggle with illness.
