'''Jennifer Jean Warnes''' (born March 3, 1947) is an American singer and songwriter who has performed as a vocalist on a number of film soundtracks. She has won two [[Grammy Award]]s, in 1983 for the [[Joe Cocker]] duet "[[Up Where We Belong]]", and in 1987 for the [[Bill Medley]] duet "[[(I've Had) The Time of My Life]]". Warnes also collaborated closely with [[Leonard Cohen]].

==Early life==
Warnes was born on March 3, 1947, in [[Seattle]], [[Washington (state)|Washington]], but raised in [[Anaheim, California]].<ref name="biography">{{cite web |url= http://www.jenniferwarnes.com/| title= Biography |work=JenniferWarnes.com| publisher=Porch Light LLC |access-date=December 20, 2009}}</ref><ref name="OCRegister">{{cite web |title=Orange Pop: Jennifer Warnes' masterpiece gets its due |url=https://www.ocregister.com/2007/08/08/orange-pop-jennifer-warnes-masterpiece-gets-its-due/ |work= [[Orange County Register]] |access-date=22 September 2018 |date=8 August 2007}}</ref> Her desire and ability to sing came early; at age seven she was offered her first recording contract, which her father declined. She sang in church and local pageants until age 17, when Warnes was offered an [[opera]] scholarship to [[Immaculate Heart College]]. She was so committed to her Catholic faith that for a while she entered a convent after graduating from high school.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.encyclopedia.com/education/news-wires-white-papers-and-books/warnes-jennifer|title=Warnes, Jennifer|website=Encyclopedia.com|accessdate=3 June 2022}}</ref>

Warnes chose to sing [[folk music]] as it became popularized by [[Joan Baez]] in the mid-1960s. In 1968, after a few years with musical theatre and clubs, she signed with [[Parrot Records]] (a [[London Recordings|London Records]] subsidiary) and recorded her first album. That year, she joined the cast of the television show ''[[The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour]]''.<ref name= "Larkin">{{cite book|title=[[Encyclopedia of Popular Music|The Virgin Encyclopedia of Popular Music]]|editor=Colin Larkin|editor-link=Colin Larkin (writer)|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]| year= 1997 |edition=Concise|isbn=1-85227-745-9|page=1231}}</ref><ref name="[[IMBd−]]">{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0912620/bio|title=Jennifer Warnes Biography| work= IMDb.com| publisher= Internet Movie Database |access-date=May 27, 2018}}</ref>

Early in her career, industry advisors suggested Warnes change her name to "Warren", but then realized that there was already an actress named [[Jennifer Warren]], so she performed briefly as simply 'Jennifer', though she was credited as Jennifer Warren when she provided duet vocals for singer-guitarist [[Mason Williams]] on his 1968 album, ''The Mason Williams Ear Show''. Soon, however, she returned to her birth name.{{citation needed|date=January 2018}}

In November 1968, Warnes (as "Jennifer Warren") portrayed the female lead in the [[Los Angeles]], California, production of the stage musical ''[[Hair (musical)|Hair]]''.<ref name= "Larkin"/> She had a related UK single release as "Jennifer" on London HLU 10278 in June 1969 with "Let The Sunshine In" and "[[Easy to Be Hard]]", licensed from the US [[Parrot Records|Parrot]] label.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.45cat.com/record/hlu10278|title=Jennifer - Let The Sunshine In|access-date=October 17, 2021|website=45cat.com}}</ref> Her fellow ''Hair'' castmate [[Bert Sommer]] wrote a song inspired by her entitled "Jennifer," and [[Woodstock – Back to the Garden: 50th Anniversary Experience#Track listing|performed it]] at [[Woodstock]].<ref>[https://www.herecomesthesong.com/post/bert-sommer-jennifer-s-journey-from-oblivion-to-woodstock-folklore-sharon-watts Here Comes the Song website retrieved 19 August 2024]</ref>
