About the artist

Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs like "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" became anthems for the civil rights and anti-war movements. His lyrics often incorporate political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, earning him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016.
