Jennifer Rush (born Heidi Stern, September 28, 1960) is an American pop singer best known for the million-selling single "The Power of Love", which she co-wrote. She achieved success in the mid 1980s, mainly throughout Europe, Latin America and South Africa with a number of hit singles and albums.
Rush was born in the neighborhood of Astoria in Queens, New York and has two elder brothers. Her father is the operatic tenor, voice teacher and sculptor Maurice Stern. Her parents divorced and she and her brothers lived with her mother until Rush was a toddler, and then with her father and his second wife in the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
Rush studied violin at the Juilliard School and also learnt to play the piano, but did not enjoy these instruments and instead took to playing the guitar in private. When Rush was nine the family moved to Germany, but returned to the US when she was a teenager. She also lived for a time in Seattle when her father was a professor of voice at the University of Washington.
