Hamilton Camp (born Hamid Hamilton Camp in London on 30 October 1934; died in Los Angeles, CA, on 2 October 2005) was a British-American singer-songwriter and actor known for co-writing (with Bob Gibson) such songs as Simon & Garfunkel's "You Can Tell The World" (1964) and Judy Collins' "Ten O'Clock All Is Well" (1963), and for writing "Pride Of Man", recorded by both Gordon Lightfoot and Quicksilver Messenger Service. As well as solo recordings, he recorded as Bob Gibson & Hamilton Camp and as Skymonters with Hamid Hamilton Camp. Evacuated during World War II to the United States as a child (with his mother and sister), he became a child actor in films and onstage. Subsequently, for a few years, he billed himself as Hamid Hamilton Camp; in this period, he was leader of a group called Skymonters that released an album (as Skymonters with Hamid Hamilton Camp) in 1973 on Elektra. Camp is remembered as one of the singers on the folk scene when the movement started gaining steam in the late 50s and early 60s. First known as Bob Camp, then Hamilton Camp, and sometimes Hamid Hamilton Camp, he perhaps is best remembered for his sporadic partnership with Bob Gibson. Their collaboration, "The Gate of Horn" by Bob Gibson & Hamilton Camp, is considered a fine folk records, and the recording shows off the improvisation and humor the two developed on stage. Camp later put those skills to good use as a member of The Committee, a San Francisco-based improv troupe. He also appeared in nu
