Jeannine Barr: Here comes the Judge — Now Singer / Songwriter!
- Jeannine Barr: Here comes the Judge -- Now Singer / Songwriter! Carl Landau, Jeannine Barr 52:51
Everyone please rise this week on I Used to be Somebody. Carl interviews his first judge ever! Jeannine Barr was an assistant district attorney who decided after 9 years to throw her hat in the political ring, (brave move) and then became a criminal district court judge for 24 years. She oversaw cases on “all the people you are afraid of.” She tells us what it was like to have a high profile, elected position as a Texas judge.
In another big brave move, Jeannine left the bench and has created a fascinating second act as a storyteller/singer and songwriter. She has a beautiful voice and is also a talented writer. In this interview, she details her journey from confidently directing bailiffs in the courtroom to becoming a first-time singer– scared to death at her first public singing appearance. I think we can all relate to being a newbie in a brand new environment and Jeannine is unstoppable.
Bonus: Jeannine surprises host Carl with a song she wrote just for him. Of course it’s titled, “I Used to be Somebody”.Â
