Cristle Collins Judd is a music theorist with special interests in the analysis of early music, music of Renaissance, and the history of music theory. She has received grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
Judd is the author of several articles on the motets of Josquin des Prez and the editor of 
Tonal Structures in Early Music (Garland, 1998) for which she received the Emerging Scholar Award from the Society for Music Theory. More recently, her work has been in the area of history of music theory. Her book, Reading Renaissance Music Theory: Hearing with the Eyes (Cambridge University Press, 2000), received the Wallace Berry Award from the Society for Music Theory for a distinguished book on a music theoretic topic. Subsequently, she has published a series of articles on the relationship of theory and practice in the compositions and writings of Gioseffo Zarlino. Her two-volume edition of motets by Zarlino is in press in the series Recent Researches in Music of the Renaissance (A-R Editions) 
and a CD of these works, recorded by Ensemble Plus Ultra on the Glossa label, will appear in 2006. Current projects include a book entitled The Diffusion of Musical Knowledge: Studies in the History of Music Theory. This work draws together her interests in medieval arabic treatises about music, music and dialogue in the Renaissance, 19th-century translations of music theory books into English (and especially the role of women as translators), and recent trends in Anglo-American music theory.
Nationally, she has served on the Council of the American Musicological Society and the Executive Board of the Society for Music Theory as well as the editorial boards of Music Theory Spectrum and Journal of the American Musicological Society .
