She was described by The New York Times as a "contralto grounded in a bluesy growl and capable of sweeping over four octaves".
Between 1975 and 1978 Snow was married to Phil Kearns (who later came out as gay).
She had a daughter, Valerie Rose, who was born with severe brain damage. Snow resolved not to institutionalise Valerie, and cared for her at home until Valerie died on March 19, 2007, at the age of 31.
Snow's efforts to care for Valerie nearly ended her career.
