Summary:
Patti Smith defined punk rock in 1978 with her hit song "Because the Night," but the New Jersey native was never looking for fame. A lover of poetry, art, and creative expression, it was the desire to do something great that motivated her to move to New York at age 20 that, and hunger. The oldest daughter of a waitress and factory worker, she knew how to survive on little money. Making a lot of it, she says, was never part of her journey. But an astounding journey its beenone thats sent her touring around the world, writing award-winning books, and marrying a musician with whom she had two kids. She talks to Heres the Thing host Alec Baldwin about singing poetry with The Beats, getting saved from a bad date by Robert Mapplethorpe, and her love for 7/11s glazed doughnuts.
