Willie Nelson, Director, was born April 30, 1933, in the tiny farming community of Abbott, Texas. After high school, Nelson served briefly in the Air Force and then spent some time as a student at Baylor University. Beginning in the mid- 50s, he worked as a disc jockey in Texas and Washington, played in honky-tonks and continued refining his skills as a songwriter. In 1960, he moved to Nashville and signed as a songwriter with Pamper Music. He joined Liberty Records as a composer in 1962, his first major label deal. In 1961, Faron Young scored a No. 1 with Nelson s Four Walls. Later that year, Patsy Cline hit it big with Crazy, and Billy Walker did moderately well with Funny How Time Slips Away. Nelson s second single for Liberty, Touch Me in 1962, took him to No. 7, and that would remain his chart high point for the next 13 years. He recorded for RCA from 1965 until 1972, then moved to Atlantic Records. Dissatisfied with his pace as a recording artist, he returned to Texas, where he became a focal point of Austin s emerging progressive country music scene. In 1975, Nelson began a fruitful association with Columbia Records that would last into the 90s. His first album for Columbia, Red Headed Stranger, proved its appeal when one of its songs, Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain, went No. 1. Nelson s outsider mystique gained a name in 1976 with the release on RCA Records of Wanted: The Outlaws, a compilation of tracks cut by Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Jessi Colter and Tompall Glaser. In 1979, Nelson made his first foray into movies with The Electric Horseman, which gave him some wonderfully funny scenes with Robert Redford. He followed with Honeysuckle Rose (1980), in which he was the star and which introduced the song that would become his theme, On the Road Again. Subsequent films include Thief (1981), Barbarosa (1982), The Songwriter (1984), Where the Hell s That Gold?!!? (1985), The Last Days of Frank & Jesse James (1986), Red Headed Stranger (1987), Once Upon a Texas Train (1988), Dust to Dust (1994), Gone Fishin (1997), Wag the Dog (1997),...
