 | | The sister of folksingers singers Pete and Mike Seeger, the daughter of composer Ruth Crawford Seeger and ethnomusicologist Charles Seeger and the mother of instrumentalists Neill and Calum MacColl, Peggy Seeger began her life as a musician at age seven when she learned to play the piano. |
 | | Seeger moved to Ashville, N.C., in 1994 and published two songbooks, "Peggy Seeger Songbook, Warts and All" (Oak Publications, 1997) and "The Essential Ewan MacColl Songbook" (Oak Publications, 1998). |
 | | More that 40 years of concerts and 70 recordings have contributed to Seeger's legendary status as a performer who weaves a lifetime of advocacy into a narrative that involves her audience as a partner. |
