| Mary Chapin Carpenter News: |
By capturing in song moments from life and presenting them in a way that makes them universal, Mary Chapin Carpenter has ascended to the heights of popularity in country music. An Ivy League graduate who refuses to don the customary country-and western attire, Carpenter may be an unlikely candidate for queen of country, but with her five critically acclaimed, genre-blurring albums and several hit singles, she has picked up five Grammy awards, two best female vocalist awards from the Country Music Association, and a best female vocalist honor from the Academy of Country Music.

Born on February 21, 1958 in Princeton, New Jersey, Mary Chapin Carpenter (she hyphenated Mary Chapin in the late 1980's to emphasize her middle name, by which she is known to friends, but at the urging of her record company, she removed the hyphen in 1994) is the third of four daughters. Her father, Chapin Carpenter, was an executive with Life magazine, and her mother Bowie Carpenter, worked at a private school. Mary Chapin's first love as a child was ice skating, and she regularly spent summers in Colorado at various skating camps. She was also exposed to all kinds of music, and by the second grade she had learned to strum chords on an acoustic guitar. "There were four girls in my family, all within two to three years of each other," she told Ryan P. Murphy of the Washington Post (August 1, 1987), "and every one of us liked something different. My older sister liked classical stuff, my middle sister liked musical comedy, and my younger liked rock-'n'-roll." Added to that eclectic mix was her father's taste for jazz and her mother's preference for opera.
