Laredo served as a jury member for several competitions, among them the "Young Concert Artists International Auditions", the "Naumburg Foundation Competition", the "Seventeen Magazine Competition", the "New York City Competition", all New York City, and the "William Kapell International Piano Competition", Maryland. As late as 2004 she was a jury member of the "International Piano-e-Competition" in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota. “We had no idea she was ill,” competition director and pianist Alexander Braginsky told the Minneapolis Star Tribune after Laredo's death. “She was so feisty and opinionated, a powerful personality.”
