Tori Amos is foremost among the artists who have redefined the role of women in music in the last decade. Her piano-based music revived that instrument in rock and roll, and her complex yet accessible songs have pushed the parameters of songwriting. Since the double-platinum success of her solo debut, "Little Earthquakes," in 1992, Amos's albums and tours have reached millions of listeners worldwide. She is the co-founder of the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN). Her latest recording is "The Beekeeper."Ann Powers has been writing about popular music and society since the early 1980s. She is the author of "Weird Like Us: My Bohemian America "and co-editor of "Rock She Wrote: Women Write About Rock, Pop, and Rap." She was a pop critic for the "New York Times" from 1997 until 2001 and an editor for the "Village Voice "from 1993 until 1996. She has written for most music publications and her work has been widely anthologized. She is currently a curator at the Experience Music Project, an interactive music museum in Seattle, Washington.
