Biography

JANET NOH is a bi-coastal (NYC & LA) songwriter, singer, and classical pianist. With a double major in economics and history from Yale, she started her career as an investment banker on Wall Street.

Since graduating in 2016, she made her Broadway debut in ROCKTOPIA and has been a featured performer at Lincoln Center, New York City Center, Public Theater, and more. Also an active educator, Janet is currently a guest songwriter at Borough of Manhattan Community College and Columbia University. She is a songwriting teaching artist at Lincoln Center Theater.

Janet’s musical works include: Popular Table (Chicken Soup for the Soul, R&H Theatricals), Pangaea (Live & In Color, MMC, Frederick Loewe Foundation), and an original piece for the BARS Workshop written with original cast members of Hamilton (Public Theater). Recently, she gave a TED talk about her musical journey at the TEDxMidAtlantic Conference for 1200 attendees in Washington, D.C. Currently, Janet is working on a new musical and is writing songs for an upcoming feature film, Anastasia (Paramount Pictures, Netflix, Disney+). www.janetnohmusic.com / @janetnoh
