Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Michael Peter Smith (born 7 September 1941) is a Chicago, U.S.-based singer-songwriter. Rolling Stone Magazine once called him "The greatest songwriter in the English language". He has been singing and composing since the 1960s, and his rich and challenging songs have been recorded by more than 30 performers. He is best known for writing "The Dutchman," which was popularized by Steve Goodman and also recorded by Tom Russell, John McDermott, Gamble Rogers, Jerry Jeff Walker, the New Kingston Trio, Liam Clancy, Anne Hills, Suzy Boggus, Norm Hacking, and Robert James Waller. Smith was born in South Orange, New Jersey, a rough-edged factory town and shades of it linger throughout his writing. He attended Catholic school (Our Lady of the Valley and Our Lady of Sorrows in the Oranges), which would go on to shape much of his writing. A notable example is his song "Sister Clarissa." Smith had three younger sisters and they were the basis for his autobiographical play Michael, Margaret, Pat and Kate, originally presented at the Victory Gardens in Chicago.
