She is not from New York. She was born in a Bronx hospital and moved to her parent's farm in South New Jersey immediately after. The record company didn't make her change her last name - she did it herself when she was thirteen and began performing ("I wanted my own name, my own legacy. I was very young.") Yes, her birth name was Janis Eddy Fink after her father's cousin ("...who died at thirteen - I used to worry about that"). She picked Ian because it was her brother's middle name, not because of James Bond and Ian Fleming ("My mother said she would divorce me if I became Jasmine Thompson like I wanted"). She changed it legally as soon as she could. She did not graduate from high school. She did not go to Swathmore. She did turn down Woodstock ("although maybe I was there and just don't remember ") She did turn down The Graduate , on the advice of her agents ("Don't ask ") For more, see the article "Monumental Mistakes".

Janis Ian Records reviewed on this page: Janis Ian ...For All The Seasons Of Your Mind The Secret Life Of J. Eddy Fink Who Really Cares ... Hunger Unfortunately, Janis Ian is better known for a couple of fluke hit singles than for her mostly impressive body of work. Dig deeper into her catalog and you'll be rewarded with a batch of wry, piercing songs with clever arrangements and a disarmingly straightforward vocal delivery. Ian was a child prodigy, shooting to sudden fame at 15 with her self-penned "Society's Child," about a white girl who succumbs to pressure and stops dating a black boy. Though it hasn't aged well, it was controversial enough in 1967 to get her cursed and spat on, and it sailed up the charts. She rapidly matured as a singer and songwriter, but nobody paid much attention until the surprise mid-70's hit "At Seventeen" and the accompanying album Between The Lines established her as one of the preeminent soft-rock post-folkies. After several intriguing followups experienced sales problems, Ian took several years off from the business, moved to Nashville, made a reputation as a songwriter for others, came out as a lesbian, and started recording again (not necessarily all in that order). Luckily for us, her songwriting skills are intact, and her recent work seems more confident and relaxed. Her official site is back; there's also a very extensive

AT THE BLUEBIRD AUDITIONS Performing Songwriter, May 1996 Some of the people we'll see today have travelled from as far as Canada to be here. Many of them have only been in Nashville overnight, stealing time from their day jobs in the hope of being scheduled for the Bluebird Sunday Night Writer's Showcase. We're so backed up with applicants at this point that the soonest they'll take the stage here is six months from now. I've been helping to judge the auditions for about four years now, whenever my schedule and Amy's coincide. It's one of the things I enjoy most about being part of this community, albeit in a masochistic sort of way. Auditions are hard. I'm sure they're harder on the applicants than the judges, though I believe the main reason for that is that the applicants have bigger dreams, and more to lose. The judges, on the other hand, have to sit through their performances. All of them. Good and bad, boring and worse. I'm sure that for a first-time applicant hitting the Bluebird stage, seeing us lined up against the back wall resolutely trying to keep our opinions out of our faces, we are crushingly intimidating. We try not to be; we try to be innocuous and encouraging. The longer we sit, the harder it is to be either. Why are they here?

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Ian, Janis (b. 1951) Janis Ian burst onto the pop music scene at the age of fifteen with her controversial hit tune "Society's Child." After dazzling early success came some fallow years, but she revitalized her career in the early 1990s, when she also came out publicly. Her musical talents have brought her nine Grammy nominations. Janis Eddy Fink was born in the Bronx, New York on April 7, 1951 but spent her early years on her parents' chicken farm in southern New Jersey. The family home was filled with folk and classical music and jazz. Ian's interest in music was precocious: she began learning to play the piano at two and a half and later taught herself guitar and French horn. Sponsor Message. She wrote her first song, "Hair of Spun Gold," at the age of twelve. Dreaming of a career in show business, she dubbed herself Janis Ian, adopting her brother's middle name as her stage name. Ian achieved fame with "Society's Child," a song about interracial love, penned when she was fifteen. Because of its controversial topic, some two dozen record companies rejected it before Verve Folkways put out the single, which hit number fourteen on the pop charts despite the fact that many radio stations refused to air it.

Her first album in 1967 had her nominated for a Grammy, at only sixteen years old! Janis is a virtual music-writing machine, most of which she recorded herself. She not only sings, but plays instruments as well, especially the piano and guitar. Janis said some time back, "I get told a lot, 'You play like a guy', and I'm not sure I know quite what that means. I guess it's meant to be a compliment. I do know that back when I started, women just didn't play. They might strum along and accompany themselves, but they weren't players. So when people see me live for the first time, it's always this big surprise to them." Janis writes reality, songs that make you think, musical poetry that crawls around in your brain and pierces your heart. You are liable to think "Oh, yeah, I've been there", and then look at your own experiences in a different light.

Reviews Clearance Center Software Most Popular ... Prices Click Here AnchorDesk Why this Grammy winner gives away her music David Coursey Executive Editor, AnchorDesk Friday, August 30, 2002 Add your opinion Forward in Format for While the recording industry says free music downloads hurt record companies, some artists say that what's bad for the media behemoths of the world may be very good for them. One of those artists is singer/songwriter Janis Ian, who dropped by AnchorDesk Radio this week to talk about how free music helps her career. It's just a coincidence that Ian's visit coincided with the final death throes of Napster , the first and best known of the music-swapping sites. Napster crashed amid record industry lawsuits even after major label BMG took a big stake in the company, hoping to turn it into a music-for-pay site. DON'T EXPECT JANIS to shed any tears over Napster's demise. Ianwho has recorded more than 25 albums and is best known for the 1975 hit "At Seventeen"thinks file-sharing services like Napster, which make money by facilitating mass file-swapping, cross a line between fair use and something worse. She's got no problem with music-swapping sites per se, as long as the music they make available comes with the proper permissions attached. Such sites have already become an important venue for new artists to get exposure.
