Marcovicci was born in Manhattan to Helen Stuart, a singer, and Eugene Marcovicci, a physician and internist of Romanian descent. In her teens she decided that she wanted to be a singer, but instead majored in drama. In a 1972 interview, she looked back at this period without enthusiasm: Marcovicci left school and started making her way into show business as a singer, appearing on The Mike Douglas Show and The Merv Griffin Show. As an actress, she debuted in television commercials and played Dr. Betsy Chernak Taylor on the soap opera Love is a Many Splendored Thing from 1970 to 1973. She appeared in the second pilot film for the television series Harry O, titled Smile Jenny, You're Dead. She was nominated for a Golden Globe award for the New Star of the Year in 1977 for the film, The Front (1976). She had a recurring role on Hill Street Blues. She has appeared on Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Kojak, The Incredible Hulk, Magnum, P.I., Cybill, Arli$$, Taxi, Voyagers! (as Cleopatra), Baretta, Mannix, and Friends and Lovers (TV series). She starred on both Trapper John, M.D. and Berrenger's. Marcovicci appeared onstage on Broadway in Ambassador. Her film roles include The Front (1976), The Concorde... Airport '79 (1979), Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (1983) and Jack the Bear (1993). In 2008, Marcovicci celebrated her 22nd season at the Oak Room of the Algonquin Hotel with Marcovicci Sings Movies II. A 60th Birthday concert followed in May 2009 at Town Hall in NYC. To commemorate this event her personal record label, Andreasong Recordings, Inc., released a compilation CD titled As Time Goes By: The Best of Andrea Marcovicci, her 17th album and/or CD. At the end of 2011, Marcovicci celebrated her 25th season at the Oak Room with "No Strings", a collection of songs about travel. Her closing performance of "No Strings" was the final cabaret event at the Oak Room, as the Algonquin's new owner turned the space into a lounge for "preferred" customers.
