Lou Reed was born in Brooklyn in 1942, and grew up on Long Island.
He studied at Syracuse University with the poet Delmore Schwartz, and in 1964, he founded The Velvet Underground with John Cale.
In 1967, the band released its debut album, The Velvet Underground & Nico , probably the most acclaimed album in rock n roll history.
(It was hailed by Rolling Stone as the most prophetic rock album ever made.
) After the bands breakup in 1973, Reed went on to have an extraordinarily successful solo career, releasing such beloved albums as Transformer , Berlin , and New York.
Over his forty years as a solo artist, Reed collaborated with a huge number of artists and musicians and produced a number of major productions, including a series of concerts based on his album Berlin , staged at St.
Anns Warehouse, in Brooklyn, in 2006--a collaboration with the artist Julian Schnabel.
He died of liver disease in 2013.
