"Taylor the Latte Boy", the Goldrich & Heisler song associated with Kristin Chenoweth — who sang "Taylor" on The Rosie O'Donnell Show and The Late Late Show as well as at the Metropolitan Opera House — has also been performed by other singers including Susan Egan and John Tartaglia. They also wrote the cult-hit "Alto's Lament" which is a song about a soprano who always gets stuck singing the alto parts.

Zina has played in Broadway orchestra pits, including "Avenue Q", "Oklahoma!", "Bombay Dreams", "Grand Hotel" and conducted at "Titanic". With Marcy Heisler, she has written songs for the Disney characters, Winnie the Pooh, Timon and Poomba; they are also contributors to the Disney Channel's Johnny and the Sprites. She currently composes for Wonderpets on Nickelodeon.
