Biography by Mark Deming. A major folk-rock singer/songwriter of the 1960s who grew increasingly adventurous in his long solo career.

American singer-songwriter Paul Simon is an iconic and influential figure in American rock music. He is known for his work as part of the duo Simon & Garfunkel, and for his long-running success as a solo artist. Simon & Garfunkel released their last album of new material, Bridge Over Troubled Water, in 1970. With its gospel influences and innovative studio production, the album was a smash and the title song became a cultural anthem for the 1960s generation. But while Simon was ready to move in new musical directions, evident on the track El Condor Pasa, a melody Simon heard performed by the South American group Los Incas, Garfunkel was trying his hand at acting, in movies like Catch-22 and Carnal Knowledge. Their careers diverged, and after too many years together, they were both ready to move.
