Married for 21 years to the handsome and charming Bill Tatum. They have no children together, but she is close to her step-son, the handsome and charming Will Tatum. Also a very cute dog named MacDuff. Bill and Karen live in a lovely co-op on the upper West Side, and have a vacation home on the Jersy shore that's a converted boathouse. Bill is an actor who used to be a regualr on a soap opera. Now he mostly does stage work. He also enjoys golf. Bill and Karen met dong an Equity Library Theatre production of the musical SEESAW. He was the lead, she was in the chorus. He was married at the time, and, according to her, she resisted the attraction and they didn't get involved until he was divorced.
For lots of good stuff, check out her website..

Her mother's maiden name, and much more, can be found in the book BROADWAY STORIES, by Marty Bell, where she is the subject of an entire chapter called "Leading Lady".
Amusing anecdotes about her sex life can be found in the October 1984 issue of PLAYBOY.

Posted: 6/13/05 at 5:05pmThat is the best picture I have ever seen in my entire life.

I think I might have to have a Ziemba moment to cheer myself up since that sick mofo Michael Jackson is a free man.
#116re: Karen Ziemba Appreciation
Posted: 6/13/05 at 5:28pmFishie, apparently you have three chances to have a live one this week.
#117re: Karen Ziemba Appreciation
Posted: 6/13/05 at 8:52pm*bump* for the Playbill article
#118re: Karen Ziemba Appreciation
Posted: 6/14/05 at 12:25amAlas Rath, I would love to drive to NJ and have a live Ziemba moment, but I cannot drive, and no one will want to go with me. I guess my Steel Pier cd will just have to work overtime...
#119re: Karen Ziemba Appreciation
Posted: 6/14/05 at 12:34amWell, hopefully someone will go and report back.

Without taking time to re-read BROADWAY STORIES, I seem to recall that Ziemba is of German origin.
By the way, for a while in the early 1990's- at least when she did WORLD GOES ROUND, Karen had them put the little "accent mark" over the "E" in Ziemba in playbills, posters, etc. I guess so folks would jknow it was "Zee-EM-ba" as opposed to "ZEEM-ba" or "ZIME-ba"

Does this picture make anyone else smile? How come we can never keep the Karen love on the first page?
#123re: Karen Ziemba Appreciation
Posted: 6/17/05 at 11:07amPerhaps they should have put that little accent on the Tony nomination teleprompter to help out Mr. Joel last year.

Posted: 6/17/05 at 11:09amNo no Rath, that wouldn't have helped...he's just stupid.
