About Holly Foster Wells
As the granddaughter of legendary singer-songwriter Peggy Lee, Holly Foster Wells has
dedicated her career to preserving and championing one of the most distinctive voices
in American music. Her education in the entertainment industry began early, touring with
her grandmother and gaining firsthand insight into the artistry and the business behind
the spotlight. Holly earned a degree in Communications from California Lutheran
University before launching a successful career in television production, working as a
coordinator for The Carsey-Werner Company and Castle Rock Entertainment,
contributing to some of the most iconic shows of their time,
including Roseanne, Seinfeld, and Will & Grace. In 1998, she transitioned from
television to legacy work, stepping into the role she had long been preparing for as
President of Peggy Lee Associates. Today, Holly oversees every aspect of her
grandmother's legacy - including licensing, catalog management, publishing, and
strategic partnerships - while safeguarding her grandmother's artistic vision and
ensuring that Peggy Lee's voice continues to resonate with new generations.
