But if you look at how she has captioned the "other photo", it is clear that Janis' evil twin has stolen her new glasses!

Good eyes Marcia! Gee the evil twin was at the Framingham Show last spring. Wonder if it's her yearly visit?

I've posted a comment, thanking her for the photo and, referring to the cover of the book, told her how the author's name is spelled.

Lovely picture. Thanks for posting it. And yes, very nice glasses :cool:

I'm sure Janis can come up with a great "glasses" song as did her friend Angela with her Black Glasses (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tf0NtAF3ta8)

Any ideas for a title?

Thanks for thanking the photographer Chet. Maybe she'll join us.

This article about the book fair doesn't mention Janis' glasses but it sure is a hoot.....

Meeting Nashville area judge Kip Gayden, author of historical crime novel, A Miscarriage of Justice. Kip and his incredibly sweet wife, Paulette, were among the first people we met at the authors' reception on Friday night. And where they go, people follow. We went from having a quiet drink at the hotel bar with the Gaydens, to being joined by folk legend Janis Ian (who came down to the bar in her pajamas, hoping to grab a quick snack, and ended up talking for hours.) Janis was incredibly cool and down-to-Earth, and just happened to know Kip from a Spanish class they'd taken together. My husband, a die-hard folk/bluegrass fan, lost all semblence of cool when he realized Janis knew Pete Seeger. The next thing we knew, there were a dozen or so authors of all genres and experience levels sitting around crowded tables and chatting. It was like the Algonquin Round Table, only you know, at the Holiday Inn.

Janis even sung At Seventeen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQr7GcfXRsM) at the Kentucky book fair!
