Probably the best known of the women’s music artists is Holly Near, although she is even more familiar as a left-wing political activist. Holly Near appeared in several films, including Slaughterhouse Five and The Todd Killings, as well as television shows like All in the Family, The Mod Squad and The Partridge Family.
