DYLAN WINS PULIZTER

DYLAN WINS PULITZER PRIZE




(Sorry if someone already posted this...) I recently saw Bob Dylan's American Journey exhibit: http://www.skirball.org/i...ail&oid=24

and it reminded me (yet again) what an amazing artist he is.

Bob Dylan was awarded with the special citation on Monday, April 7, making history as the first rock and roll artist to be honored. Singer, songwriter, author, musician, and poet, was recognized for his "profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power."

For more information on this award click http://www.pulitzer.org/index.html or for the Forbes Article http://www.forbes.com/fee...63603.html

No Dylan love? This is major - no 'rock" star has ever been honored for his/her lyrics before.
