After stepping back from the spotlight in recent years, eight-time Grammy Award winner Art Garfunkel is opening up about a long-private health struggle that shaped his life behind the scenes—even at the height of his musical career.
In an interview with People magazine, the 83-year-old singer shared that he has been living with psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune condition that causes skin cells to build up rapidly, resulting in scaling and inflammation. Though rarely discussed publicly, Garfunkel said the condition persisted quietly throughout much of his time in the public eye.
