Jennifer Abod is the sister of feminist activist Susan Abod. She obtained her Bachelor of Science from Southern Illinois University, her Master of Science from Southern Connecticut State University, and her Ph.D. from Union Institute and University.
Abod was a co-founder and the singer of the New Haven Women's Liberation Rock Band from 1970 until 1976. The highly political band played, once, in front of the White House during a women's liberation march, and at Niantic State Prison, where Erica Huggins was imprisoned. The group also recorded with the Chicago Women's Liberation Rock Band. Her voice was described as "a deep blue voice she could have taken to Hollywood," by Naomi Weisstein.
In 1972, Ms. published "Feminist Rock: No More Balls and Chains," which Abod contributed too, along with Virginia Blaisdell and Naomi Weisstein. She also co-wrote "The Liberation of Lydia," the first feminist radio soap opera in 1970 and was the first woman in Connecticut to host a nightly AM talk radio program, "The Jennifer Abod Show," which ran from 1977 until 1980.
