Bob Dylan Musician and Poet

Bob Dylan was born as Robert Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota, in 1941. In the 1960s he gained recognition through his lyrics, capturing the alienation of American youth, and his harsh, insistent delivery. Influenced by Woody Guthrie, among others, Dylan exercised a profound influence on folk and Rock Music, his style evolving from folk to folk-rock to country. Enigmatic and reclusive, he became something of a cult figure.
