Born in Evanston, Illinois to a concert pianist mother and musical Dutch father, Kristin Lems learned to sing and play several instruments before settling on folk music. She achieved a national following in venues large and small during the 1970's and 80's, bringing her high energy and musical skills to social movements such as women's rights, racial equality, peace, and ecology. The New Yorker called her "a charmer in the most literal and least artificial sense of the word."
