Hawaii's own Grammy-nominated musician was carving out a growing
reputation as a professional surfer when an accident left him too
injured to compete at the highest level. Jack Johnson switched to
making surf movies but gradually found his voice as a
singer-songwriter.
Initially a cult favorite among surfers, he has now crossed over
to the mainstream, acclaimed as a "Dylan for the twenty-first
century." His third album, 2005's "In Between Dreams, " sold over
two million copies worldwide and continues to ride high in album
charts, and he has just picked up a BRIT Award for International
Breakthrough Act.
Acclaimed George Harrison biographer Marc Shapiro has conducted
hours of new interviews with those who knew Johnson both as a
surfer and a musician, to produce a compelling portrait of one of
rock's most original new stars.
