Judy Glass is professor of organ at Southern Adventist University where she has taught since 1975. A native of Texas, she completed both B.Mus. and M.Mus. degrees at the University of Texas in Austin. She has done post-graduate work at Texas Tech University where she also taught theory and piano. From 1971 to 1973 Glass was an organ student of Anton Heiller at the Vienna Academy of Music and was a participant in the International Organ Course in Haarlem, Holland. She has also participated in the North German Organ Academy Summer Course of Harald Vogel.

Glass has taught many organ students while at SAU. Many former students are serving as organists and teachers throughout the United States. Many of her organ students have continued study after leaving her studio and received advanced degrees. She has received recognition as one of the outstanding teachers at SAU and was also awarded a Distinguished Service Medallion in 1988.

Glass has given many concerts across the United States and in many of the famous cathedrals of Europe. One of her concerts in Austria was the annual memorial concert for Anton Heiller, on the organ named in his memory. Annually, she performs an organ concerto with the Southern Adventist University Orchestra and, in 1993, premiered Horatio Parker's Organ Concerto on the organ in St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna, Austria, accompanied by the Orchestra of Vienna.

In addition to her teaching, she is the organist at the Collegedale Church on the campus of SAU and at the First Presbyterian Church in Chattanooga, Tennessee. During her time at Southern Adventist University five mechanical action organs have been built and installed by John Brombaugh, the organ in the campus church being the largest American-made tracker instrument in North America.

Glass is a member of Mu Phi Epsilon and was nominated to Pi Kappa Lambda in 1986.
