Janice Hawthorne Timm

Originally from Montgomery, Alabama, Janice has lived in the Ukiah area since 1987. She currently directs the Mendocino College Choir and Vocal Jazz Ensemble, and performs with the Mendocino College Jazz Band.

She also works locally as a music director with the Ukiah Players Theatre and SPACE, and is often the accompanist for musical theater productions at Mendocino College and Ukiah High School Vocal Music performances.

As a choral conductor, and music director, Janice brings 30+ years’ experience directing choirs and teaching singers of all ages, ranging from preschoolers to elders. Her goal is to help each person to find their voice — and to use that voice with joy and confidence in collaborative music-making and performing.
