D. L. Menard
Doris Leon "D. L." Menard〔François 1990, p. 446.〕 (born April 14, 1932) is one of the most important songwriters and performers in Cajun music. He has been called the "Cajun Hank Williams" because of the country-tinged sound of his voice and music.
==Biography==
Menard was born in Erath, Louisiana. The only child〔Savoy 1984, p. 272.〕 of Mr. Ophy Menard and Mrs. Helena Primeaux Menard.〔Savoy 1984, p. 270.〕 He was part of a Cajun farming family. He started to play guitar at 16 and started playing dances in Louisiana clubs at 17.〔 He was greatly influenced by Hank Williams meeting him once in 1951 at the Teche Club〔 shortly before Hank's death. Since then he has performed in more than 30 countries and served as a good-will ambassador for Cajun culture. He has also recorded with non-Cajun artists, including Bryan Ferry. He and his wife Louella - now deceased - have seven children, seventeen grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.〔 He still lives in Erath and continues to play music. He has maintained a separate career as a craftsman, noted for his handmade ash-wood chairs he makes at his one-man factory in Erath.〔
