 Woody Guthrie's songs are sung by all of us.  (Read the first verse of "This Land is Your Land").  Guthrie was called the singing hillbilly because he never let go of the voice of the people.  His life was tragic; almost like a soap opera.  Read this interesting book to find out more about the writer of so many familiar, uplifting American songs.  (Amy Schaffner, amy.schaffner@risd.org  Northrich Elementary Richardson, Texas)
