Jenny Lewis
Jennifer Diane Lewis (born January 8, 1976), is an American musician and actress, best known for her work with the band Rilo Kiley and, to a lesser extent, her solo career. As a musician, she composes music, writes lyrics, sings, and plays several instruments including guitar and keyboards. The bulk of Lewis's acting career was as a child and teen, but she still shows up from time to time in movies and tv shows.
I first saw Jenny Lewis in the movie The Wizard, but I became more interested in her when an online friend told me about her music with Rilo Kiley. I'm usually wary of actors-turned-musicians, but I began to like what I heard from the four songs the band made available online, and started buying their albums and seeing them in concert. I own most of the albums that predominately feature Jenny and have seen her in concert about seven times, and talked to her a couple of times. She's always been very pleasant.
