Woody Guthrie (1912–1967)
Author of Bound for Glory
About the Author
Woody Guthrie was born in Oklahoma and traveled this whole country over -- not by jet or motorcycle, but by boxcar, thumb, and foot. During the journey of discovery that was his life, he composed and sang words and music that have become a national heritage. His songs, however, are but part of his show more legacy. Behind him Woody Guthrie left a remarkable autobiography that vividly brings to life both his vibrant personality and a vision of America we cannot afford to let die. show less
