Musical artist
Deborah Lynn Friedman (February 23, 1951 – January 9, 2011)[1][2][3][4] was an American singer-songwriter of religious Jewish music.
She was an early pioneer of gender-sensitive language: using the feminine forms of the Divine or altering masculine-only text references in the Jewish Liturgy to include feminine language.
She is best known for her setting of "Mi Shebeirach" the prayer for Healing.[4][2] Her songs are used in Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox Jewish congregations.[
