He’s an American folk singer for the ages and the songwriting poet of the 20th century with a Pulitzer Prize to prove it. His musical legacy has inspired generations but he still thinks of himself as Robert Allen Zimmerman, the small-town boy from Minnesota. The world knows him as Bob Dylan. A bit of a recluse, the man behind the music is an enigma to his fans. He has avoided the trappings of celebrity, instead devoting his life to music and his never-ending tours across the globe.
