Contacting Janis
Janis tries to look at all her email, but due to the volume, usually cannot respond. She also will not comment on your work, write music for your lyrics or lyrics for your music, listen to unsolicited music files, read unsolicited lyrics, send you a signed anything, promote your anything, or wash your dog. Unsolicited requests sent to her email or other address will be ignored.
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.
