Although she is a native Hawaiian, Maren Jensen was born in

UCLA, where she majored in Theater Arts and Law.[citation needed

While still in college, Jensen began a modeling career. She was featured on the covers of

Epstein-Barr Syndrome.[1] In 1993, Jensen co-founded the cosmetics brand Stila, which became one of the best selling makeup brands in retailers like Sephora.[citation needed

Jensen was a longtime companion of singer-songwriter Don Henley. In 1982, Henley released his first solo album, I Can't Stand Still, and dedicated it to her. She is credited for "Harmony Vocals" on the song "Johnny Can't Read," and is credited in the liner notes for having composed the piano intro and interlude on the song "A Month of Sundays" on Henley's 1984 album Building the Perfect Beast. She appeared in the video for Henley's song "Not Enough Love In the World" in 1985. Henley and Jensen were engaged, but they separated in 1986.[1] Jensen helped Henley establish The Walden Woods Project in the early 1990s, an organization dedicated to protecting the Walden Woods area in Concord, Massachusetts from development.[citation needed]

Jensen was also reported[who?] to be married to John Kugelberg but they were also reported[who?] to be separated. They have kept everything about their relationship very private and out of the public eye, including their marriage and separation date. Neither has shared any photos together. She has been reported[who?] as living in the New York metro area[2] and has been returning to the Los Angeles metro area from time to time because of business, family, and friends.
