A Brief History of Lawrence Ferlinghetti
Howl in 1956 led to his arrest on obscenity charges, and the trial that followed drew national attention to San Francisco Renaissance and Beat movement writers. (He was overwhelmingly supported by prestigious literary and academic figures, and was acquitted.) This landmark First Amendment case established a legal precedent for the publication of controversial work with redeeming social importance.
Ferlinghetti has in recent years become well-known as a painter. His work has been shown at various galleries around the world, from the Butler Museum of American Painting to Il Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome. In San Francisco, his work can regularly be seen at the George Krevsky Gallery at 77 Geary Street..
A Coney Island of the Mind was the most popular poetry book in the U.S. Today this modern classic has been translated into nine languages, and there are nearly 1,000,000 copies in print. His most recent books are A Far Rockaway of the Heart (1997) and How to Paint Sunlight (2001), published by New Directions.

www.citylights.com Updates for the Mind and Soul: Poet Laureate Shakes Up the Newsroom to Find a Cure for "Poetry Blindness"
San Francisco Chronicle, December 6, 1998] Lawrence Ferlinghetti When I was dubbed Poet Laureate of San Francisco last October at the Main Library, I made the foolhardy proposal that I write a column called "Poetry As News" for a daily newspaper. Just my luck that David Kipen, the new Book Editor of The San Francisco Chronicle , was there and took me up on it. Now I'm faced with the challenge of substantiating the argument, that poetry can be news, that there are poems written long ago, or yesterday, that can still be news to us. So here goes, and I hope to hear loud cries of epiphany in the newsroom. That the editor should ask me for poetry at all is itself surprising, given the notorious reluctance of daily newspapers to publish poetry of any kind, much less review it. This is one reason why most poets live in a kind of poetry ghetto, compared to their prose brothers. Having staggered through journalism school, I understand the editors' poetry blindness. They as well as many book editors and readers seem to have a block when confronted with the typography of poetry on a page, as if it were some strange species of writing too difficult for the rational mind to decipher.

    The Beat Goes On:
    Lawrence Ferlinghetti is still a rebel
    Lawrence Ferlinghetti 's A Coney Island of the Mind (New Directions, 1958) and Tyrannus Nix? (New Directions, 1985) were among the first books of poetry I selected from the dusty shelves of the much-missed Fahrenheit 451 in Laguna Beach. It was the 1980s, and an outrage I barely comprehended was building inside my awkward, 14-year-old frame, outrage that swelled every time I saw Ronald Reagan on TV. Ferlinghetti's “ I Am Waiting ” gave shape to the rage: “I am waiting,” he wrote, “for a way to be devised / to destroy all nationalisms / without killing anybody / and I am waiting / for linnets and planets to fall like rain / and I am waiting for lovers and weepers / to lie down together again / in a new rebirth of wonder.” This and his portrayal of Orange County homeboy Richard Nixon as a lumbering, vicious dinosaur made much sense as I began to understand that American-trained troops were raping and pillaging their way through Central America and that my college prospects were being whittled down to finance the war machine. I'd crank up the Clash's

    http://elsa.photo.net/housebook/house_nf31.html
    I n October 1972, Lawrence Ferlinghetti came to Boston to read at Tufts. We went to the Grolier Book Shop, where he talked to Gordon Cairnie, the proprietor, about life at City Lights in San Francisco and the woes of the small bookseller. They posed for pictures in front of Cairnie's bookcases of first editions. Gerd Stern came over. We went to the Walker Evans show at the Museum of Fine Arts; it was the last day and the place was mobbed. There were huge murals of some of the images. One, a big stuffed chair with an avocado plant growing high above it. I had my camera. The possibilities were irresistible. Lawrence arranged himself in front of the picture in such a way that it looked as if he was sitting in the chair, if you looked at him quickly. No one in the museum paid any attention to us. They walked right by as we were laughing and posing, taking pictures of ourselves in front of pictures. This was the first time I had met Ferlinghetti, though I knew his work well and had heard about him for years from Creeley and Ginsberg. He knew my work and had seen some of it at Bob's and Allen's house and in various little magazines. So it was like two distant cousins finally meeting each other. He had with him a copy of his eight-year-old son Lorenzo's book, The illustrated Wilfred Funk, which City Lights had just brought out. He showed it to everyone, read from it. He is very serious, proud of his work, and very polite. Soothing almost.

    Lawrence Ferlinghetti (b. 1919)
    Contributing Editor: Helen Barolini
    Classroom Issues and Strategies
    Ferlinghetti's work is immediately accessible and appealing, and these qualities should be emphasized. He uses everyday language to articulate his themes. A problem could be his critique of social problems in America; conservative students may find him too sharply satiric about their image of this country. You might note that although Ferlinghetti articulates the "outsider" view of society, he also espouses hope for the future; for instance, poems like "Popular Manifest" (not in this anthology) give a sense of vision and expectation. Tape recordings of Ferlinghetti reading can be effective.
    Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues
    Ferlinghetti is a political activist and his poetical career spans and reflects thirty years of U.S. political history. His personal voice brings poetry back to the people. He has done this not only as a poet, but as a publisher, editor, translator, and discoverer of new talent.
