Leonard Cohen

Discover the incredible life of Leonard Cohen, the inspiring singer-songwriter who shared songs of hope, love, loss and everything that makes us human. Little Leonard grew up in Montreal, Canada. He saw beauty everywhere, from the long-stem roses in his garden to a little bird chirping on a rusty wire outside his bedroom window. And at synagogue, Leonard listened to ancient songs and stories that touched and inspired him. When he was nine, his father died, and from then on, Leonard discovered how important it was to express his feelings through art. He published his very first book of poetry. Then, he moved to America and began songwriting. He became one of the most iconic artists of all time in a musical career that spanned nearly fifty years!
