It didn't matter as much because I'm a singer, not an actress, but my face is more acceptable in a way now than when I first came on the scene, because I'm part black.
Carly Simon

The sound of birds stops the noise in my mind.

Then I went through a big Peggy Lee stage, then I became Annie Ross, then Judy Collins.

My scar is beautiful. It looks like an arrow.

So many artists who came out during that time, including myself, were able to get on radio. New forms of singer-songwriters developed out of that.

We need role models who are going to break the mold.
