He was marked by the FBI as a subversive. He lived in fear of the fatal fires that stalked his family and of the mental illness that snared his mother. At forty-two, he was cruelly silenced by Huntington’s disease. Ed Cray, the first biographer to be granted access to the Woody Guthrie Archive, has created a haunting portrait of an American who profoundly influenced Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and American popular music itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEd Cray\u003c\/b\u003e (1933—2019), \"a meticulous craftsman of American biography\" (Douglas Brinkley), was a professor at the University of Southern California.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBorn in 1912, \u003cb\u003eStuds Terkel\u003c\/b\u003e is the bestselling author of twelve books of oral history, including \u003ci\u003eWorking\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHard Times\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Pulitzer Prize–winning \u003ci\u003e“The Good War”\u003c\/i\u003e (all available from The New Press).
