Tom Paxton (born Thomas Richard Paxton on October 31, 1937) is an American folk singer and singer-songwriter whose songs have enduring appeal (and include modern standards such as "The Last Thing on My Mind"). In 2009, he received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Paxton was born in Chicago, Illinois, the youngest child of Burton and Esther Paxton.
