Janis Joplin, born in Port Arthur Texas, was just one of many many artist in all medium, who came to San Francisco through out her history. Joplin first came to San Francisco in 1963. Because she got caught up in heavy drugs mixed with alcohol, she did go back home for a few years, then returned. Always singing, usually with her guitar, one of her favorite places to just hang out and relax, was under an elm tree at the foot of Hippie Hill in Golden Gate Park. It was here she could be found performing for anyone or no one, just herself. Because this was Janis`s tree, it was named in her honor.
