Bill Trader
Bill Trader (May 1, 1922 - October 26, 2003) was an American song-writer and singer.
Though he wrote and sang other of his songs professionally, this songwriter remains primarily remembered for writing the ballad "(Now and Then There's) A Fool Such as I" which became a hit for Hank Snow, Jo Stafford, Elvis Presley, and Petula Clark (with a French version), and has since been recorded by many other artists.
He died in Florence, South Carolina in 2003.
