		John Hammond was critically important in Bob Dylan's early career, because he had the courage and foresight to sign him to the Columbia label at a time when Dylan was extremely young, had written and performed a handful of original songs, and was only known to a relatively small circle of folk fans and musicians.
		Still, Hammond intuitively saw something in Dylan's performances and persona that was compelling and promising, and he stuck with him in the face of corporate indifference and hostility, even though he saw him mostly as continuing in the tradition of earlier folk and blues rather than as the trailblazer he later became.
		John Hammond was born in 1910 in New York City, and his family -- a branch of the Vanderbilts -- was extremely wealthy.

		Hammond's motivation in all this is nothing but his love of the music, his love of blues as that vehicle of choice.
