The late, great Patrick Swayze lit up the screen in classics like Ghost, Roadhouse, and Point Break, but Dirty Dancing made him a superstar. While Swayze stole the show, the music played a crucial role—enter Emmy-nominated, multi-platinum composer Stacy Widelitz. He co-wrote She’s Like the Wind with Swayze, a song that became an iconic hit. Beyond that, Stacy’s talents extend to scoring TV themes and capturing stunning images as an award-winning photographer. From working alongside Patrick and Lisa Swayze to creating unforgettable melodies, Stacy has done it all. Don’t miss my conversation with Stacy Widelitz,  Someone You Should Know!
