I found that people interested in theater were very serious and heavy. It was a very inbred group. I could not be a part of that. So, if I was going to be an actress, I would have to sing my way into it. I guess what I didn't like about theater on the academic level was the feeling of always being defeated. How could any 18-year-old girl be expected to play Amanda in The Glass Menagerie? You just couldn't be successful at what you were doing. And although I might not have then been able to articulate this, I must have sensed it at the time.

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 commercials and soon became better known as Dr. Betsy Chernak Taylor on the television soap opera Love is a Many Splendored Thing from 1970–1973.

She was nominated for a Golden Globe award for the New Star of the Year in 1977 for the film, The Front (1976).
Marcovicci was born in Manhattan, New York City to Helen Stuart, a singer, and Eugen Marcovicci, a physician and internist of Romanian descent. Her father was 63 when she was born and died when she was 20. 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 appeared onstage on Broadway in Ambassador. Her film roles include The Concorde ... Airport '79 (1979), Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (1983) and Jack the Bear (1993).
She married actor Daniel Reichert in 1993. The couple separated in 2004, and are now divorced. They have a daughter, Alice Wolfe Reichert.

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.
