- Algia_Mae_Hinton abstract "Algia Mae Hinton (born August 29, 1929) is an African-American blues guitarist and vocalist based in Johnson County, North Carolina.She was the youngest child of Alexander and Ollie O'Neal and grew up in an area known as the O'Neal Township, named after the slave-holders who originally owned the land. Her father had been a tenant farmer and eventually earned enough to buy a home and some land in the township. At age nine, Algia Mae learned the guitar from her mother, who was a singer and a guitarist expert in the Piedmont finger-picking style, and who often played at family gatherings, house parties, and services at the local congregation. From her father, who was a dancer, Algia Mae learned buckdancing and the two-step.In 1950, Algia Mae married Miller R. Hinton. They subsequently moved to Raleigh, where they had seven children. The marriage lasted until 1965, when Miller Hinton was killed. At this point, Algia Mae moved with her children back to the O'Neal township and earned income as a field laborer. In the meantime, she played at house parties in Johnson County, North Carolina and for her children.In 1978 Hinton met folklorist Glenn Hinson, who arranged for her performance at the 1978 North Carolina Folklife Festival. She subsequently performed at the National Folk Festival, the Chicago University Folk Festival, and in 1985 at an event called "Southern Roots" at Carnegie Hall that featured Delta and Piedmont blues artists.' She has become known for her guitar playing and her buckdancing, often playing her guitar behind her head as she dances.In 1992, she received a North Carolina Heritage Award from the North Carolina Arts Council. Currently, Algia Mae is a member of the Music Maker Relief Foundation, which produced the 1999 re-release of her EP Honey Babe (c. 1980s).".
