The Life and Tragic Ending of Glen Campbell
Glen Travis Campbell was born on April 22, 1936, in Billstown, a tiny community near Delight in Pike County, Arkansas, to John Wesley and Carrie Dell Campbell. Campbell was of Scottish and Irish descent and was the seventh son of 12 children. The family lived on a farm, where they barely managed, by growing cotton, corn, watermelons, and potatoes.
Campbell started playing guitar at age four after his father gave him a Sears-bought five-dollar guitar as a gift, with his uncle Boo teaching him the basics of how to play. Most of his family was musical, he said. "Back home, everybody plays and sings."By the time he was six he was performing on local radio stations.
