A celebrated singer, songwriter, and actor, Kris Kristofferson emerged after a period of struggle as one of the major artists of the 1970s, eventually translating that acclaim into a fruitful career in Hollywood. His songs "Me and Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through the Night," "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down," and "For the Good Times," all chart-topping hits, redefined the sound of country music, making it more personal and serious -- hallmarks of the outlaw country movement he helped create. While most of his early albums reached the Top Ten of the country charts (he reached number one with 1972's Jesus Was a Capricorn), it was his songs that gained him a foothold; Johnny Cash won a 1970 Country Music Award for "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down," Sammi Smith took home a Grammy for her 1970 version of "Help Me Make It Through the Night," and Janis Joplin had a posthumous hit with "Me and Bobby McGee" in 1971. He also won two Grammys in 1973 and 1975 for his work with then-wife Rita Coolidge. Kristofferson's renown as a songwriter brought him to the attention of Hollywood, leading to a lengthy career as a film actor. Along with winning the Golden Globe for his starring role alongside Barbra Streisand in 1976's A Star Is Born, he has appeared in films by such acclaimed directors as Martin Scorsese, Sam Peckinpah, and John Sayles, and earned yet more pop culture status for his role in the Blade Trilogy. In 1984, he formed the outlaw country supergroup the Highwaymen with Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson and continued releasing introspective Americana albums like 2006's This Old Road, 2009's Closer to the Bone, and 2016's Grammy-nominated The Cedar Creek Sessions. A 2004 inductee into the Country Music Hall of Fame and the winner of a 2014 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, Kristofferson retired in 2021
