Once I had that, I checked for the &#8220;Fame&#8221; cover on iTunes, but it wasn&#8217;t there. I needed to know if it was going to be released, so I contacted Amy&#8217;s management and wound up with a story that went up on the Huffington Post yesterday. Go check it out &#8212; and spread it around by retweeting or Facebooking it, because I think Amy deserves the recognition. She&#8217;s been working in the music business for 10 years, which means it&#8217;s time for her to have her &#8220;overnight&#8221; success!<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/wendy-brandes\/remember-her-name_b_3541497.html\" target=\"_blank\">CLICK HERE TO READ MY HUFFPOST STORY ABOUT AMY GERHARTZ<\/a>.<\/center><\/p>\n<p>You can follow Amy on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AmyGerhartz\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.
