On This Week's Show - Judy Collins!

Legendary singer Judy Collins has been a social change artist for 50 years! Her songs, Both Sides Now and Send In the Clowns, are iconic and she was nominated for an Academy Award (along with Jill Godmillow) for the documentary film, Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman, about her classical piano instructor, conductor Antonia Brico.

We talk about her life, music, relationships and activism. Judy has a new book coming out - Judy Collins: Sweet Judy Blue Eyes. My life in Music.

It was a joy to have Judy on our show...and to play some of her music. I hope you enjoy the broadcast!
