The London Legendary Female Rocker
Lita Ford, born on September 19, 1958, in London, England, is a legendary figure in the world of rock music, particularly known for her pioneering role as a female guitarist in a male-dominated industry. Raised in the United States, Ford developed an early passion for music, influenced by the British rock bands of the 1960s and 1970s. Her journey to stardom began when she joined the all-female rock band The Runaways in 1975, a group that would become iconic for breaking gender barriers in rock music.
