Robert Hicks, the author of The Widow of the South and A Separate Country, was born and raised in South Florida. He moved to Williamson County in Tennessee in 1974. In 1979, he moved to 'Labor in Vain,' a late-eighteenth-century log cabin near Leiper's Fork, Tennessee.

Working both as a music publisher and in artist management in both country and rock music, Hick's interests remain broad and varied. A partner in the B. B. King's Blues
clubs in Nashville, Memphis, and Los Angeles, Hicks serves as 'Curator of Vibe' of
the corporation.
