Proud!

Proud!

Janis Ian, the amazing singer, songwriter, writer, children’s book writer –  the list of accomplishments just continues to grow –  won her second Grammy, this time in the Spoken Word category for her Audible.com autobiography “Society’s Child”.

This makes her ninth nomination and eighth category!  (So that’s like she’s the Lois McMaster Bujold of music.)

You can watch her introduction to the Classical Awards at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P-WE4GbLLQ, and her acceptance speech at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgrwWkuYRRk.

(The other nominees were First Lady Michelle Obama, former president Bill Clinton, Rachel Maddow, and Ellen Degeneres!)
