Bob Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman on May 24, 1941, is an American singer-songwriter renowned for his influence on popular culture over a 60-year career.

He has continuously evolved his musical style, contributing significantly to American song traditions, and received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016 for his lyrical compositions.
