On her LP Strings of Pearl she was accompanied by bongo player Willie Rodriguez. Other recordings include transcriptions for harp of music by Loeillet, Purcell and others. Chertok also convinced contemporary composers, including Elie Siegmeister, , , Sergiu Natra and William Mayer, to write for the harp. As a result, numerous pieces are dedicated to her. Chertok was president of the American Harp Society and was on the faculty of several colleges and universities in the New York City area. Several of her students have gone on to distinguished careers as concert harpists. She served as judge at the International Harp Contest in Israel, and a prize named in her honor was awarded in 1982, 1985, 1988 and 1992. (en)
