Marc Craig Cohn (born July 5, 1959) is an American folk rock singer-songwriter and musician. He is best known for his song «Walking in Memphis» from his eponymous 1991 album Marc Cohn. He has issued four other studio albums to date: The Rainy Season (1993), Burning the Daze (1998), Join The Parade[1] (2007), and Listening Booth: 1970 (2010).

Cohn wrote the song «My Great Escape» for the 1995 Peter Horton film The Cure. However, the song, which was played during the opening sequence, was not released on the film’s Dave Grusin soundtrack album.

In 1987, Cohn performed two songs («One Rock and Roll Too Many» and «Pumping Iron») on the Phil Ramone-produced concept album of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Starlight Express, Music and Songs from Starlight Express.[2]

Cohn’s new album, Listening Booth: 1970 (release date July 20, 2010) is a collection of covers from the year 1970.


Cohn was born in Cleveland, Ohio. He graduated from Beachwood High School in Beachwood, a Cleveland suburb. He then attended Oberlin College.

Cohn is married to ABC News journalist Elizabeth Vargas, whom he met at the 1999 U.S. Open after being introduced by Andre Agassi.[3] They have two sons: Zachary Raphael, who was born on January 31, 2003, and Samuel Wyatt, who was born on August 16, 2006.
