Early life Composer Ruth Crawford Seeger, Peggy Seeger's mother. Seeger's father was Charles Seeger (1886-1979), a folklorist and musicologist; her mother was Seeger's second wife, Ruth Porter Crawford (1901-1953), a modernist composer who was the first woman to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship.. The family moved to Washington, D.C., in 1936 after Charles' appointment to the music division.. Songfacts®: "The Farmer Is The Man" is a genuine American folk song. The title varies: "The Farmer Is The Man That Feeds Them All," "The Farmer Is The Man That Feeds Us All," etc., but the sentiment is the same. It can be dated to at least the 1890s, and makes the point that ultimately, everyone lives off the farmer, because without him nobody.
