Arthel Lane (Doc) Watson was born in March, 1923, in Deep Gap, North Carolina. Before his first birthday, his eyes became infected, and he lost his sight. At the age of 24, Doc married Rosa Lee Carlton, with whom he had two children. In 1953, he started playing lead electric guitar in Jack Williams' Country and Western Swing Band. Seven years later, he was discovered as a solo artist. Soon after, Doc made his first appearance at the New York's premier Folk venue of the time: Gerde's Folk City.
