Patricia Donohue was a singer-actor in Binghamton, New York, who was involved in numerous community opera and theater productions. In her early years, she performed as an alto in roles for the Tri-Cities Opera and as an actor in productions of the Valley Players of the Southern Tier, Binghamton Civic Theater, Susquehanna Players, and other companies. She performed three one-woman shows: William Luce's The Belle of Amherst, a play based on the life of Emily Dickinson; Phyllis Paulette's Solo Flight, the story of Rev. Jeannette Piccard, the first woman in space and one of the first women ordained to the Episcopal priesthood; and A Celebration of Dorothy Day (co-founder of The Catholic Worker). Donohue was honored in 1999 with a star in the downtown Binghamton Hall of Fame in Binghamton, New York.
