==Biography== Leonard grew up in Germany, where she attended British schools. EMI Music Publishing signed her when she was 17.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.mtv.com/music|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19961222031224/http://www.mtv.com/music/|url-status=dead|archive-date=22 December 1996|title=MTV Music|website=MTV}}</ref> She had just released her first single at 16, which was a cover version of "Falling," a 1990 song by Julee Cruise that later became popular as the ''Twin Peaks'' theme song.

Leonard's first original songs included "Feel So Perfect," which was released by Cape, became a radio hit, and was used for a three-year, pan-European C&A advertising campaign. Multiple music videos and short films were created around the song. Many of her co-written songs have been used in advertisements for companies including Axe, RMS (Radio marketing services), Ford Ka and Vodafone Germany.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.vodafone.de/featured/inside-vodafone/running-with-the-wolves-die-saengerin-aurora-im-interview/|title=Running with the Wolves – Die Sängerin Aurora im Interview|date=8 May 2015|website=Featured|language=de|access-date=22 January 2019}}</ref>

Some of Leonard's biggest songwriting hits have been performed by other artists. Her greatest achievements in this field have included AURORA's ''"''Running with the Wolves," "Rooftop" by Nico Santos, and "Love Is You" by Thomas Godoj. In 2005, Leonard also worked on the song "Instant Replay" with Such a Surge, which was released on their album ''Alpha''.

Leonard was also the performance and music director for the German Theatre Abroad project in New York and directed the musical "Electric Society," which was staged on 12 November 2005 in Cologne, Germany.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Detailansicht Speaker - Reeperbahn Festival|url=https://www.reeperbahnfestival.com/en/speaker/michelle-leonard--0|access-date=2020-10-09|website=Detailansicht Speaker|language=en}}</ref> In 2009, she was a judge on the German casting television show ''Popstars'' and released her debut album ''Fragile.''<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/Michelle-Leonard-Fragile/release/6437226|title=Michelle Leonard – Fragile|publisher=discogs|access-date=22 January 2019}}</ref>
