Producer and songwriter Glen Ballard earned his greatest success in partnership with <a href="spotify:artist:6ogn9necmbUdCppmNnGOdi">Alanis Morissette</a> on her 1995 blockbuster Jagged Little Pill. Ballard's studio career began with actor-singer <a href="spotify:artist:57EljyVzzkhN9Dornk7gZx">Jack Wagner's</a> 1984 album All I Need, which launched the hit title track; from there he worked with artists including <a href="spotify:artist:68kACMx6A3D2BYiO056MeQ">Teddy Pendergrass</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3Wt78tag4Ha2FU5UnKo3mB">Ava Cherry</a>, also playing synthesizer on <a href="spotify:artist:3fMbdgg4jU18AjLCKBhRSm">Michael Jackson's</a> 1987 effort Bad. After working on <a href="spotify:artist:7jmTilWYlKOuavFfmQAcu6">Barbra Streisand's</a> Till I Loved You and <a href="spotify:artist:4PpmBoqphQusNFsxuVKb6j">Paula Abdul's</a> Forever Your Girl, Ballard's production breakthrough came with the 1990 release of <a href="spotify:artist:1yMYjh77WgOVafRkI50mim">Wilson Phillips'</a> smash self-titled debut; from there, he also collaborated with newcomers <a href="spotify:artist:2bNtosg6E8tvmN6wYxPCfu">Curtis Stigers</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:23kP8xlQifcAV4nd84iHbW">Trey Lorenz</a>. Co-writing and producing Jagged Little Pill with <a href="spotify:artist:6ogn9necmbUdCppmNnGOdi">Morissette</a>, he scored by far his biggest hit yet, also garnering a number of Grammy Awards; subsequent efforts included albums by <a href="spotify:artist:7FhJOuJZMv6wYeYq7GXEeO">Brendan Lynch</a> and the <a href="spotify:artist:1VbWUxZTRNY2gw3qZ1tg9W">Corrs</a>, and through Capitol Records, in 1997 Ballard also formed his own label, Java. Two years later he wrote and produced the feature film Clubland. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
