I'm having non-catholic readers.

I don't think it matters at all.

Nope, doesn't matter, only matters if the reader has a problem with what they are reading (my friend's Baptist SIL refused to read).

No problem, anyone can do the readings.

My Catholic church did not ask us for their background, just their name.

No, that shouldn't be an issue at all. They usually just asked for the names. However, you jewish friend might want to do the first reading which comes from the Old Testament... which of course is part of the Torah as they are all the readings before Christ.
