Freestyle icon Judy Torres shares her journey from the Bronx to the stage and the personal challenges behind her public career in No Reason to Cry: A Memoir, featuring a foreword by longtime friend, creative executive and brand strategist David Miskin.
NEW YORK, Oct. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- For decades, audiences have known Judy Torres through her voice. In No Reason to Cry: A Memoir, the singer and New York radio personality invites them to know her story.
Tracing her journey from a Bronx childhood to the rise of freestyle music, Torres writes candidly about the experiences that shaped her, including those that unfolded far from the stage. Alongside the career milestones are moments of doubt, painful setbacks and the determination to rebuild. At its heart, the memoir is about learning to value yourself and deciding how your story continues.
Known to fans as the Queen of Freestyle, Torres built a lasting connection with listeners through songs including "No Reason to Cry" and "Come Into My Arms," as well as her work in radio and theater. The memoir deepens that connection, giving readers a more intimate understanding of the woman whose music has been part of their lives.
The book features a foreword by her longtime friend and creative collaborator David Miskin, an international creative executive and brand strategist whose work spans hospitality, design and entertainment. Miskin, chief creative officer of Kasumigaseki Capital, also executive produced Torres's sold-out Off-Broadway one-woman show, No Reason to Cry.
Their friendship began in the 1990s and has grown through decades of creative collaboration and personal milestones. His foreword introduces Torres from the perspective of someone who has stood beside her through both public achievements and private challenges, offering a portrait of the friend behind the performer.
For the audiobook, Torres tells her story in her own voice. Miskin narrates his foreword, continuing their collaboration from the stage to the page and audio.
