The New York Times described Auldridge as "one of the most distinctive dobro players in the history of country and bluegrass music while widening its popularity among urban audiences".[1] He also worked as a graphic artist. BiographyAuldridge was born in Washington, D.C.,[2] and grew up in the suburban town of Kensington, Maryland. He attended Wheaton High School and, while in his teens, took classes at the Corcoran College of the Arts and Design.[3] Inspired by his uncle, steel guitarist Ellsworth T. Cozzens who had performed with Jimmie Rodgers during the 1920s,[3] Auldridge started playing guitar at the age of 13. His main influence through his early years was Josh Graves who also sold him his first dobro.[4] A 1967 graduate of The University of Maryland, Auldridge worked as a graphic artist for a commercial art firm in Bethesda, Maryland and then for the now-defunct Washington Star-News. He did not start playing music full-time until the Washington Star-News folded in 1981. Auldridge last played with Darren Beachley and The Legends of the Potomac bluegrass band.[5] Past bands include The Country Gentlemen, Emerson and Waldron, Cliff Waldron and the New Shades of Grass, Seldom Scene (of which he was a founding member), Chesapeake, The Good Deale Bluegrass Band, and John Starling and Carolina Star (which featured three original members of The Seldom Scene). Mike was also a member of the touring bands of Lyle Lovett and Emmylou Harris. He worked with Paul Beard (Beard Guitars) to produce the Beard Mike Auldridge Models of square-neck resophonic guitars (dobro), including an 8-string version. Auldridge died on December 29, 2012, just one day prior to his 74th birthday, at home under hospice care in Silver Spring, Maryland after a lengthy battle with prostate cancer.[6][7] AwardsAuldridge was nominated for four Grammy awards, including twice for Best Bluegrass Album with The Seldom Scene, in 1992 and 1994.[8] He won numerous awards including Frets Magazines "Dobro Player of the Year" and the International Bluegrass Music Association's Distinguished Achievement Award. He is a recipient of the 2012 National Heritage Fellowship awarded by the National Endowment for the Arts, which is the highest honor in the folk and traditional arts in the United States.[9] Discography{{Main| Mike Auldridge discography}}References1. ^{{cite news |last=Friskics-Warren |first=Bill |date=December 31, 2012 |title=Mike Auldridge Dies at 73; Lent Dobro Fresh Elegance |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/01/arts/music/mike-auldridge-dies-at-73-lent-dobro-fresh-elegance.html |work=New York Times |access-date=17 October 2017}} 2. ^[{{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p588/biography|pure_url=yes}} Allmusic biography] 3. ^1 {{cite news |last=McArdle |first=Terence |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/obituaries/mike-auldridge-founding-member-of-dcs-seldom-scene-bluegrass-group-dies-at-73/2012/12/30/2d43b998-5289-11e2-8b9e-dd8773594efc_story.html |title=Mike Auldridge, founding member of D.C.’s Seldom Scene bluegrass group, dies at 73 |work=The Washington Post |date=2012-12-30 |accessdate=2017-05-09 }} 4. ^{{Cite journal | last =Holland | first =William | title =Young Man with a Dobro | journal =Washington | date =November 19, 1972 | postscript =}} 5. ^{{cite web | title = Good Deale Bluegrass Band: Band Members | work = | publisher = Good Deale Bluegrass Band | date = | url = http://www.gooddealebluegrass.com/band/bios.html | doi = | accessdate = 2009-05-18}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://blogs.tennessean.com/tunein/2012/12/29/mike-auldridge-hero-of-the-dobro-dies-at-73/ |title=Mike Auldridge, ‘hero’ of the Dobro, dies at 73 |author=Cooper, Peter |publisher=The Tennesseean |date=December 29, 2012 |accessdate=December 29, 2012}} 7. ^{{cite web|last=Morris|first=David|title=RIP Mike Auldridge|url=http://bluegrasstoday.com/rip-mike-auldridge/|publisher=Bluegrass Today|accessdate=29 December 2012}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.grammy.com/grammys/artists/mike-auldridge |title=Grammy Award Results for Mike Auldridge |author= |date=2017 |website=www.grammy.com |publisher=The Recording Academy |access-date=17 October 2017}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.arts.gov/honors/heritage/year/2012 |title=NEA National Heritage Fellowships 2012 |author= |website=www.arts.gov |publisher=National Endowment for the Arts |access-date=17 October 2017}} External links
