Биография
Early Life
Carole King Klein was born Carol Joan Klein on February 9, 1942, in Manhattan, New York City, to Jewish parents Eugenia and Sidney N. Klein. Her mother, a teacher, introduced her to music at a young age, teaching her piano skills when King was just four years old. King's prodigious talent was evident early on, as she displayed absolute pitch, impressing her father and sparking a lifelong passion for music.
Career
King's career began in the late 1950s when her song "Oh! Carol" became a top-10 hit for Neil Sedaka, her high school boyfriend. This success led her to pursue songwriting full-time alongside Gerry Goffin, with whom she formed a prolific partnership. Together, they crafted numerous hits, including the Shirelles' groundbreaking "Will You Love Me Tomorrow". The 1960s saw King and Goffin dominate the charts, writing classics for various artists and establishing King as a formidable force in the music industry.
In 1971, King released her landmark album "Tapestry", which solidified her status as a solo artist and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time. Her ability to blend pop, soft rock, and folk elements resonated with audiences, and she continued to release successful albums throughout her career, including "Music" and "Rhymes & Reasons".
Personal Life and Activism
King has been married four times and is the mother of four children, all of whom are involved in music. After moving to Idaho in 1977, she became an advocate for environmental issues, actively supporting the Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection Act. A committed political activist, King has campaigned for various Democratic candidates, including John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, using her platform to promote social and environmental causes. Her contributions to music and activism have earned her numerous accolades, including a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
