Contacting Janis
Janis tries to look at all her email but normally cannot respond. Please do not send requests for autographs via email or postal mail; requests for autographs will be ignored. If you send a SASE it will be destroyed. She can not comment on your work, write music for your lyrics or lyrics for your music, listen to or watch unsolicited files, promote anything for you, or wash your dog. If you are a professional seeking to hire her for a project, use her work, or write theme song, you can contact Kevin Speeks at info@janisian.com to enquire about availability.
Janis is still making appearances on behalf of Varda Bar-Kar’s award-winning film Janis Ian: Breaking Silence. If you want to arrange an appearance please contact the film company as noted toward the top of this page. If you’re interested in more of a “living room” appearance in conjunction with the film, please contact info@janisian.com . You can also sign up for the very occasional Newsletter, though she disseminates most of her current news on her Facebook page.
