Listen to the first episode of the new WBEZ podcast ‘Making Beyoncé.’

Beyoncé 1: Girls Tyme

She’s a media mogul. A philanthropist. A feminist hero. And she’s only 38 years old.

But before the Grammys, the platinum records and Destiny’s Child, there was just a shy girl growing up in Houston.

In Episode 1 of Making Beyoncé, we follow Beyoncé Knowles from the stages of local talent shows to her first crack at a record deal with the group Girls Tyme.
