"Jennifer Warnes" is the professional name of the actress/singer whose real name is Jennifer Warren, and who was a regular performer on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour from '67 to '70. Her singing career took off with mid-70's hits like "I Know A Heartache When I See One" and "Right Time Of The Night". Later critical acclaim came with the album "Famous Blue Raincoat" in 1986, which showcased the lyrical history of Leonard Cohen (who gave the project his blessing).
One should note that Warnes/Warren is a different actress than the actress of the same name who starred with Paul Newman in the 1979 movie "Slap Shot"; it was due to the possible confusions and conflicts with this actress that the singer Warren (of this article) began using the different stage name. Jennifer Warnes continues a rich career, augmented by an extensive website.
