“You can't have a light without a dark to stick it in.”
—Arlo Guthrie
Arlo Guthrie was born on July 10, 1947, in the Coney Island
section of Brooklyn, New York. The oldest son of folk pioneer Woody Guthrie, he
was just 13 when he played his first public show. With hits like "Alice's
Restaurant" and "Coming into Los Angeles," Guthrie, who
performed at the original Woodstock Festival, became an icon of the 1960s
counterculture generation.
American folk singer and icon of the
1960s, Arlo Davy Guthrie was born on July 10, 1947, in the Coney Island section
of Brooklyn, New York. He was the oldest son of Woody Guthrie, a pioneering
folk singer and writer, and Marjorie Greenblatt Mazia Guthrie, a well-known
dancer who had toured with the legendary Martha Graham Dance Company.
Not surprisingly, Arlo was steeped
in performance and song. Although his parents divorced when he was young, Arlo
remained close to his father, who gave him a guitar for his sixth birthday.
Even after Woody Guthrie was
diagnosed with Huntington's disease, which forced him to be permanently
hospitalized in 1954, Arlo remain immersed in his father's world. Many of
Woody's close friends, including Pete Seeger, Cisco Houston and Leadbelly,
played an important role in Arlo's life and career.
Just as the New York City folk scene
was taking off, in 1961, at age 13, Arlo played his first public show. The show
didn't necessarily put Arlo on the map, but it helped pave the way for a career
that would make him an icon of the 1960s and has spanned more than five
decades.
Arlo Guthrie Biography
1960s Icon:
By the mid-1960s, Arlo Guthrie was a fixture
in the American folk scene. His famous father's legacy no doubt helped him, but
Arlo quickly proved his own talent as he performed with a slew of famous
musicians, including Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Doc Watson and Bill Monroe.
During his shows, Arlo started telling a
story based on events in his own life about a littering incident and being
rejected by the draft board. After turning the story into an 18-minute song, he
performed it to great success at the 1967 Newport Folk Festival. Soon after,
Arlo inked a deal with Warner Brothers and released the album Alice's
Restaurant in September 1967, just weeks after Woody Guthrie's death.
The album, which featured Arlo's famous tale
"Alice's Restaurant Massacree," cemented his status as a star and
icon of the 1960s counterculture scene. In 1969, Arlo starred in the film
version of "Alice's Restaurant."
In the aftermath of his debut album, Arlo's
star hardly faded. A second LP, simply called Arlo, debuted in late
1968, and a third LP, Running Down the Road, was released in 1969.
That same year, Arlo played at the Woodstock Festival, performing "Coming
into Los Angeles," which was featured prominently in the 1970 releases of
the Woodstock movie and soundtrack. In 1972, Arlo recorded what proved to be a
popular version of the song "The City of New Orleans."
Later Years:
While Arlo's popularity peaked in the late
1960s and early 1970s, he has continued a busy recording and performing career.
His work has included a mix of original material and covers. He has also toured
extensively with his father's old friend, Pete Seeger. (Pete Seeger died in
2014). In 1983, Arlo created his own recording label, Rising Son Records.
Outside the music studio, Arlo has done some
occasional acting work, appearing in the ABC series Byrds of Paradise as
well as the USA Network series Renegade. In 1991, Arlo purchased
Trinity Church in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, the setting for the "Alice's
Restaurant" story. The church is now home to the Guthrie Center, which
provides a range of local and international social services, from HIV outreach
to a meditation center.
Arlo's wife Jackie died in 2012, just days
after their 43rd wedding anniversary. They have four children: Abe, Cathy,
Annie, and Sarah Lee.
