Greil Marcus

Greil Marcus is the author of numerous books about music and culture, including The Old Weird America: The World of Bob Dylan's Basement Tapes (1997), which was originally titled Invisible Republic (now the author doesn't know what to call it), and Folk Music: A Bob Dylan Biography in Seven Songs (2022). He was born in San Francisco, lives in Oakland with his wife, Jenny, and can just see a bit of the bridge that was turned purple when Prince died from their apartment in Minneapolis.
