Kris Kristofferson, who passed away on 28 September 2024 at the age of 88, was an anti-establishment American singer, songwriter and actor. Among the famous songs he wrote was "Me and Bobby Mc'Gee," which was dedicated to his friend Janis Joplin; and among the well-known films he acted in with Barbra Streisand was A Star is Born.
