Guthrie Woodrow Wilson
Guthrie Woodrow Woody Wilson. Was an n important person in his time of the great depression? He helps do so much during the time that was worse in the United States. He went through many issues. He was a really important person. While he was growing up he had many problems due to his family. While he grew up his family wasn’t there most of the time. His mom died of Huntington’s chorea. His sister dad and many more died of a horrible death. He never finishes his education when he had the chance to. To everyone his music was inspirational to many people around the world. His life was not as great as everyone thinks it was. He influenced many people such as bob Dylan, Robert Zimmerman, Billy Bragg and wilco, Pete Seeger, who is his best friend. Over all many people influence Guthrie to act the way he did for many people.
Guthrie made an impact because he wrote many songs and entertain may people in his time. Many people influenced him and they wrote many songs together. As his music went on he wrote songs like protest songs, and testaments to something that he felt that was wrong. Although it seemed that he had a good life with all of his success, he really had a lot that was wrong. As he was growing up he was a part if the merchant marines and he was in war world 2. In 1945,he was drifted back into the army. He never finished his education because he dropped out of high school when he only had two more years to go. His family was almost dead and his mom had a rear dieses then he soon developed. As many people don’t know this he was part of the great depression. To get his food he would entertain people and they will give him food, because the great depression was the worst time for America. When the stock markets crashed many people were left without jobs, homes and a lot of people died of hunger or they were dehydrated. They were feed because they had a soup kitchen to support as many of them as they could. One day Guthrie went away from this. He hitchhikes to Texas were he met the girl that he was going to marry. He had three kids with her.
I chose to do him because he was a part of the great depression and I was really interested in that. As people go on, they hardly even know who is gurthie and that is an issue because his songs are all over the world but just different people sing them.
