The New York Times Magazine polled more than 250 music insiders and gathered six Times critics to choose the 30 greatest living American songwriters. One artist who made the list was Lucinda Williams, the singer-songwriter whose “Car Wheels on a Gravel Road” many critics consider to be one of the greatest roots albums ever. The writer Carina del Valle Schorske met with Williams in Nashville to talk about being self-taught, her love of Southern literature and reaching down into the deepest, darkest parts of herself to pull out a song.
