Liz Story, born October 28, 1956, in San Diego, California, is an American pianist and composer. She began her musical education at a young age, mastering Mozart's Klavierkonzert F-Dur KV 413 by 11. She studied at the Juilliard School and Hunter College, and after hearing pianist Bill Evans perform at a club in New York City, she studied jazz piano with Sanford Gold.
