| | Mariah Carey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Carey graduated from Harborfields High School in Greenlawn, New York, although she was frequently absent due to her popularity as a demo singer for local recording studios. |
 | | Carey co-wrote all of the original compositions on her 1990 debut album Mariah Carey and continued to co-write nearly all of her material for the rest of her career. |
 | | Carey said in one interview that she cannot read sheet music and prefers to collaborate with a pianist when composing her material, but feels that it is easier to experiment with faster and less conventional melodies and chord progressions using this technique. |
