Howlin' Wolf

Chester Arthur Burnett was born on June 10, 1910 in White Station, Mississippi, near West Point, he was named after Chester A. Arthur, the 21st President of the United States, and was nicknamed Big Foot Chester and Bull Cow in his early years because of his massive size at 6 feet, 6 inches (198 cm) and close to 300 pounds (136 kg). He explained the origin of the name Howlin' Wolf thus: "I got that from my grandfather (John Jones)." His Grandfather would often tell him stories about the wolves in that part of the country and warn him that if he misbehaved, the howling wolves would "get him".
