Andrew Rowan Summers (December 15, 1912– March 1968) was an American folk singer and player of the Appalachian dulcimer.[1] He is credited with a large role in preserving Appalachian music from extinction.[2] Summers was among the earliest musicians to draw attention to the dulcimer to a wider audience outside the Appalachians, with John Jacob Niles being one of the few earlier.[3]

Summers was born in Abingdon, Virginia in 1912, and enrolled in the University of Virginia in 1930.[4] Despite his interest in music, he ended up getting a degree in law, working as an attorney and later teaching at New York University.[5]
