Grammy Award winners Melissa Manchester and Helen Reddy will perform as part of the California Women’s Conference, which will take place at the Long Beach Convention Center on September 23 and 24.

Manchester will open the conference with the public début of “Beloved,” a song written for the choir of the Valley State Prison For Women. She will also sing renditions of “I Know Who I Am” and “Whenever I Call You Friend.”

Reddy will close the conference with several selections, including the anthem, “I Am Woman.”

The California Women’s Conference is an annual non-partisan event that was created in 1985 to address the high failure rate among women-owned businesses by giving women entrepreneurs greater access to funding and other helpful resources.
