Orin O'Brien, an outstanding double bassist, was a trailblazer in the world of classical music as she became the first-ever female musician to be part of the prestigious New York Philharmonic under Leonard Bernstein's direction in 1966. Despite her extraordinary talent, Orin has never been one to seek the limelight; instead, she remains humble and focused on supporting her loved ones - family, students, friends, and fellow musicians. As this inspiring octogenarian reflects on her remarkable career, now that she's retired at 87 years old, her dedication to music and humanity becomes a beautiful testament to resilience and passion. Her life serves as an enduring reminder of the power of hard work and perseverance in an industry traditionally dominated by men, highlighting the importance of breaking barriers while staying true to oneself.
