Harry Chapin

For his campaigning for social issues, in particular his highlighting of hunger around the world and in the US, including being widely recognised as being the key player in the creation of the Presidential Commission on World Hunger in 1977, Chapin was posthumusly awarded the Special Congressional Gold Medal in 1987.

Harry Chapin died on July 16, 1981 in a car accident at the age of only 38 and was interred in the Huntington Rural Cemetery, Huntington, New York. "Don't Stop Dancing" was a minor hit for Creed in late 2002/early 2003. He also released a book of poetry, Looking...Seeing, in 1977. However, Creed rebounded quickly, with one of the summer's biggest hits, "One Last Breath".

In the mid 1970s, Chapin focused on his social activism, including raising money to combat hunger in the United States and co-founding the organization World Hunger Year, before returning to music with On the Road to Kingdom Come. The song and video were possibly Creed's least successful since achieving mainstream success. Verities & Balderdash, released soon after, was even more successful, bolstered by the single "Cat's in the Cradle.". In early 2002, "Bullets" was released as a single, along with a costly, special effects-laden video. Chapin's debut album was Heads and Tales (1972), which was a success thanks to the single "Taxi." His follow-up album, Sniper and Other Love Songs, was less successful, but his third, Short Stories, was a major success. In the fall of 2001, "My Sacrifice," the first single off of Creed's latest album, Weathered was one of many inspirational songs to become huge in a post-9/11 America. With John Wallace, Tim Scott and Ron Palmer, Chapin started playing in various local nightclubs in New York City. Its follow-up, "With Arms Wide Open," was similarly massive on rock radio and arguably even bigger on pop radio that summer.

In 1971, he decided to focus on music. It wasn't until early 2000 that the single crossed over onto pop radio, and Creed became a household name. He originally intended to be a documentary film-maker, and directed Legendary Champions in 1968.
