Bob Dylan is one of the world’s most popular and acclaimed songwriters, musicians and performers, having sold more than 110 million albums and performed literally thousands of shows around the world in a career spanning five decades.  His most recent studio album, Modern Times – lauded by critics around the world and selling more than 2.5 million copies to date -- entered the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart at #1, as well as debuting within the Top Five in 21 other countries.  His previous studio albums, Time Out Of Mind and “Love & Theft” have been among his most commercially successful and critically lauded, each having sold more than two million copies and earning Grammy nominations for Album Of The Year (Time Out Of Mind won that award in 1998).  The most recent volume in the acclaimed “Bootleg Series”, Tell Tale Signs, was a top seller around the world, and made numerous critics “Best Of” lists for 2008 – virtually unprecedented for a collection of its type.

Bob Dylan was recently awarded a special Pulitzer Prize for “his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power.”

Bob Dylan won an Academy Award for “Things Have Changed” in the category “Best Song From A Motion Picture” in 2001 (he won a Golden Globe that year, as well), and the song was featured in the Season 4 NCIS episode, “Sharif Returns.”
