🔺Bob Dylan (legally named Robert Dylan; born Robert Allen Zimmerman on May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time. Over his 60-year career, Dylan has been a significant figure in popular culture. He gained prominence in the 1960s, with songs like "The Times They Are a-Changin'" (1964) becoming anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements.

Initially, Dylan modeled his style on the folk songs of Woody Guthrie, the blues of Robert Johnson, and the "architectural forms" found in Hank Williams's country music. Over time, he incorporated increasingly sophisticated lyrical techniques into the folk music of the early 1960s, blending it with the intellectualism of classic literature and poetry. His lyrics drew from political, social, and philosophical influences, challenging pop music conventions and resonating with the emerging counterculture.

Dylan was born and raised in St. Louis County, Minnesota. He released his self-titled debut album of traditional folk songs in 1962, but his breakthrough came with "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" in 1963. This album featured iconic songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall," which adapted the melodies and phrasing of older folk songs. In 1964, he released the politically charged album "The Times They Are a-Changin'" as well as the more lyrically abstract and introspective "Another Side of Bob Dylan."

Between 1965 and 1966, Dylan sparked controversy among folk purists by adopting electrically amplified rock instrumentation. In just 15 months, he recorded three of the most influential rock albums of the 1960s: "Bringing It All Back Home," "Highway 61 Revisited," and "Blonde on Blonde." With his shift from acoustic folk and blues to rock music, the complexity of his sound increased. His six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone" (1965) pushed the boundaries of both commercial and creative possibilities in popular music.

In July 1966, a motorcycle accident caused Bob Dylan to withdraw from touring. During this time, he recorded a large body of songs with members of the Band, who had previously supported him on tour. These recordings were later released as *The Basement Tapes* in 1975.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Dylan explored country music and rural themes with albums such as *John Wesley Harding* (1967), *Nashville Skyline* (1969), and *New Morning* (1970). In 1975, he released *Blood on the Tracks*, which many considered a return to form.

In the late 1970s, Dylan converted to Christianity and released three albums of contemporary gospel music before returning to his rock roots in the early 1980s. *Time Out of Mind* (1997) marked the beginning of a renaissance in his career. Since then, he has released five critically acclaimed albums of original material, the most recent being *Rough and Rowdy Ways* (2020).

Dylan also recorded a trilogy of albums that pay tribute to the Great American Songbook, especially songs associated with Frank Sinatra, and an album that reinterprets his early rock material into a mellower Americana style, titled *Shadow Kingdom* (2023). Since the late 1980s, he has been on a continuous tour known as the Never Ending Tour.

Since 1994, Bob Dylan has published nine books featuring his paintings and drawings, and his artwork has been displayed in major art galleries. He has sold over 125 million records, making him one of the best-selling musicians of all time. Dylan has received numerous accolades, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, ten Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award. He has also been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

In 2008, the Pulitzer Prize Board honored him with a special citation for "his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power." Furthermore, in 2016, Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
