Julee Cruise (born December 1, 1956, Creston, Iowa) is an American singer, songwriter, actress and musician.With a distinctive airy voice, Cruise has recorded four albums, but is probably best known for "Falling", the theme song for the cult U.S. television series Twin Peaks. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, she collaborated with composer Angelo Badalamenti and film director David Lynch, who produced and wrote the lyrics for many of her released songs. Cruise is also a songwriter in her own right. She is married to Edward Grinnan, Editor-in-Chief of Guideposts and best-selling author of The Promise of Hope.
Julee has a degree in French Horn from Drake University and has played with a number of symphony orchestras.
