Raised in East Brunswick, his extensive career includes performances throughout North America, Mexico, and Europe, two books on his musical life and travels, numerous recordings, and his “Songwriter’s Notebook” of interviews and recordings, which is part of the American Folk Life Center at the Library of Congress, Washington, DC.
