Willie Hugh Nelson, a renowned country crossover star, was born on April 30, 1933, in Abbot, Texas, during the Great Depression. His early life was marked by his parents' divorce, with his mother moving to Oregon and his father remarrying. Willie and his sister Bobbie Lee were raised by their gospel-singing paternal grandparents, who introduced them to music.
