Tom Waits (born Thomas Alan Waits, in Pomona, California, on December 7, 1949) is a prolific American singer, songwriter, composer, and actor. He started his career in the early 1970s as a singer in spit 'n' sawdust bars. Initially, he was deeply influenced by the beat generation (novelists like Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs, and poets like Allen Ginsberg and Charles Bukowski). He is often compared to Charles Bukowski, being similar both in content and lifestyle as his literary contemporary, although his views are more egalitarian than Bukowski's. (show more...)
