Biography
Demas was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1940. She holds a B.A. in English from the University of Vermont and continued her studies at the New York University Graduate School of Education. She spent several years as a teacher in the New York City Board of Education system before making her theatrical debut with the Champlain Shakespeare Festival. Later, she was featured for three seasons with the New York Shakespeare Festival Elizabethan Singers as one of a quartet consisting of Paula Janis (her eventual co-star on The Magic Garden) and their brothers, Jonathan Rosen and Alex Demas. During her appearances she was "discovered" by theatrical agents, which lead to her ingenue lead in Fred Ebb's new book musical "Morning Sun", and her continued career on stage, television and film.Usually with
