Biography

Lawrence Ferlinghetti was a poet, writer, artist, and proprietor of San Francisco bookstore and publishing house City Lights Books. Born in 1919, he was the author of "A Coney Island of the Mind" (1958), one of best selling poetry volumes in American history. In the 1950s, Ferlinghetti published Allen Ginsberg's hallucinatory anti-establishment manifesto "Howl" and subsequently stood trial on obscenity charges. City Lights Books, and Ferlinghetti himself, became closely associated with the Beat poets and the San Francisco counterculture of the mid to late 20th century. Ferlinghetti passed away on February 22, 2021, at the age of 101.
