True Stories and Other Dreams is the ninth studio album by American singer and songwriter Judy Collins, released by Elektra Records in 1973. It peaked at No. 27 on the Billboard Pop Albums charts.
The album included Valerie Carter's "Cook with Honey", which returned Collins to the U.S. pop singles top-forty, as well as Tom Paxton's song "The Hostage" about the 1971 Attica Prison riots. It also included a number of Collins' own compositions, including "The Fisherman Song", which she would later perform on Sesame Street.
