How do you mark points on a histogram?

Is there a way to mark a specific value on a plot generated with "histogram(...)"? I find a few specific values in my code and would like to highlight or mark them on a histogram. Is there a way to do this?

You could draw a line through the bar,
line([binValue, binValue], [0, countsValue], 'Color', 'r', 'LineWidth', 2);
Or you could place a mark on top of it
plot(binValue, countsValue, 'r*', 'LineWidth', 2, 'MarkerSize', 15);
or other things. What would you like to do with it?

Thank you! The mark is exactly what I needed. I had tried to create a second plot on top of the histogram as on my first try and was having issues. This worked perfectly.
