Jean Ritchie was an American folk singer, songwriter, and one of the most influential tradition-bearers of Appalachian music. She’s often called “the Mother of Folk” because of her enormous impact on the mid 20th century folk revival.
She was born December 8, 1922, in Viper, Kentucky and died June 1, 2015, at age 92.
She is known for preserving and performing hundreds of traditional Appalachian songs learned orally from her family and community and playing and popularizing the Appalachian dulcimer, helping bring the instrument into mainstream folk music.
She recorded and shared Appalachian variants of centuries old British and Irish ballads, including many Child Ballads.
She was married with photographer George Pickow in 1950; they often collaborated artistically.
Ritchie bridged the gap between old world ballad traditions and the modern folk movement. Artists like Joan Baez, Judy Collins, and Bob Dylan drew inspiration from the repertoire she preserved and the style she embodied.
