J&R In The News
J&R Jr. Opens its Doors for a Sneak Peek
This past Sunday Feb 5th J&R Jr. in Downtown NYC hosted a Blogger Preview Day for all the NY-area prominent Tastemakers and their kids. We held two events – a morning “mimosa” brunch #mkJRjrbrunch for the Macaroni Kid NY-area Moms (actually some came in from St. Louis!), and a fabulous “Super Bowl kickoff” afternoon party #JRjrkickoff co-sponsored by KidzVuz and MomTrends.
A Letter from Jason “J&R Jr.” Friedman
My name is Jason Friedman. My parents, Joe and Rachelle Friedman (“J” and “R”), started J&R Music World together 40 years ago. My father had an engineering degree and a love for electronics and gadgets so opening an electronics store was a natural for him. My mother had a chemistry degree but had a strong passion for music so it was equally fun for her to sell LPs and flip through their vast collection after hours. 3 years later when my mother was pregnant with me and had to work from home (in the days before VPNs and Email) she realized there were other people at home that would find home shopping convenient, and hence J&R’s mail order / Toll-Free division was born, which of course would be the precursor to JR.com.
