Hazel Smith, the country music writer who coined the term "outlaw music", passed away earlier this month at the age of 83.

Before becoming a columnist for Country Music magazine, Smith worked as a publicist for artists including Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. In that role, she coined the term "outlaw country" to describe music that bucked the slick Nashville sound of the '70s.
