--------------------
Jennifer Munson is the technical director for On the Media and a Mastering Engineer at Taloowa.
Jen has engineered some of the greatest musical talents in history. Isaac Stern, for instance. Also Prince, Judy Garland, Jessye Norman, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Glenn Gould, Busta Rhymes, Lou Reed and Kathleen Battle.
And also Brooke and Micah.
"They're very much like Springsteen," she says, "only without backup vocals."
In addition to WNYC, Jen has worked for Sony Classical, Gateway Mastering and ABC News. Her first love, however, is singing. Trained at Indiana University, she is an accomplished jazz vocalist and composer of such tender love songs as "Lucy."
Lucy was her dog.
When not recording, mixing and mastering "On the Media," or other acts, Jen is most likely found in her garden.
