Authentic, gifted, and seemingly possessed of a timeless honesty, Johnny Cash transcended all labels and categories to become one of the most influential artists in modern music. He dealt with early tragedies, mused about love, and voiced the frustrations of the forgotten through song, all while maintaining a formidable image as the Man in Black. Cash, who would have turned 90 this year, delivered hit after hit, from “I Walk the Line” to a poignant cover of Trent Reznor’s “Hurt,” in a career that spanned six decades. The Made in America Collection celebrates his incredible life through photos—and in his own words.
