We do not know the exact date. We do know that Whitney Houston started singing in church; some sources say she began as young as seven or eight years old. There is also some evidence that she wanted be a singer even at that young age. She later accompanied her mother, a gospel vocalist, on tour, and sang some backing vocals with her band. Also, we know that in 1979, while still in high school, she sang backing vocals for at least one pop song, "Life's A Party" by the Michael Zager Band. But she did not formally begin her own solo career until she recorded her first album for Arista Records; the first songs from it were released in 1985.

I assume you are asking "in what era" was Whitney Houston a singer. She made her first album in 1985 and had a number of hit songs during the late 1980s and into the 1990s. She continued to record in the early 2000s, although she had not had any hits in a while.
