Biography by Scott Yanow
Leni Stern, who has received more recognition for her composing than her guitar playing, has managed to carve out her own musical personality despite being married to fellow guitarist Mike Stern (a potentially dominant influence). She began classical piano lessons when she was six, but was much more inspired a few years later when she discovered a guitar in the attic and taught herself to play jazz. Stern's early years were actually spent as an actress in her native Germany, featured on a national television show. However, she took a summer off in 1977 to enroll at Berklee, and she never returned to acting. Stern lived in Boston until 1980, moved to New York, and has worked steadily in clubs ever since, recording for Passport (now defunct), Enja, and Lipstick. Primarily an instrumentalist in the past, with 1997's Black Guitar she revealed her prowess as a vocalist, and began releasing a series of albums that mixed jazz, pop, and rock on her own LSR imprint, including Kindness of Strangers (2000), Finally the Rain Has Come (2002), When Evening Falls (2004), and Love Comes Quietly (2006).

Biografía de Scott Yanow
Leni Stern, que ha recibido más reconocimiento por componer que por tocar la guitarra, ha logrado labrarse su propia personalidad musical a pesar de estar casada con su colega guitarrista Mike Stern (una influencia potencialmente dominante). Comenzó a tomar clases de piano clásico cuando tenía seis años, pero se inspiró mucho más unos años más tarde cuando descubrió una guitarra en el ático y aprendió a tocar jazz por sí misma. Los primeros años de Stern los pasó en realidad como actriz en su Alemania natal, apareciendo en un programa de televisión nacional. Sin embargo, se tomó un verano libre en 1977 para inscribirse en Berklee, y nunca volvió a actuar. Stern vivió en Boston hasta 1980, se mudó a Nueva York y desde entonces ha trabajado constantemente en clubes, grabando para Passport (ahora desaparecido), Enja y Lipstick. Principalmente como instrumentista en el pasado, con Black Guitar de 1997 reveló su destreza como vocalista, y comenzó a publicar una serie de álbumes que mezclaban jazz, pop y rock en su propio sello LSR, incluyendo Kindness of Strangers (2000), Finally the Rain Has Come (2002), When Evening Falls (2004), y Love Comes Quietly (2006).
