Jud Friedman
Hit songwriter/producer. Founder, Intensive Songwriting Workshops. Mentor/professor. Harvard lawyer. Entrepreneur/app developer.
I started out wanting to be a rock star but, fortunately for all concerned, realized fairly early on that songwriting and producing were what I really craved. I have had multiple nominations for Oscars, Grammies and Golden Globes and hits with songs such as “Run To You” by Whitney Houston, “I Don’t Have The Heart” by James Ingram and “For The First Time” by Kenny Loggins. I’ve written for and worked with artists ranging from Barbra Streisand to Rod Stewart to Ray Charles to Toni Braxton and, recently, several major European stars including Giorgia. I write, produce, arrange and engineer for artists who are mega-stars to “just starting outs”. I run global Intensive Songwriting Workshops, mentor and teach aspiring writers and artists and speak on songwriting and the music business. Welcome to my home!
