Woody Guthrie
USA
1912-1967
Best known for the song
This
Land is Your Land,
Guthrie came of age
during
the Great Depression
and later embraced
left-wing
politics,
including
some tenets
of
communism.
By weaving
social issues
into his music,
he reimagined
folk songs
as
platforms
for protest,
starting
a creative
tradition
carried on by scores
of other top artists.
In hundreds
of folk songs
and ballads,
Guthrie's lyrics
celebrated
American workers,
lamented
the woes of the
poor
and advocated
for civil rights.
