	Lucien Carr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lucien Carr (March 1, 1925 – January 28, 2005) was a key figure in the Beat generation, and later an editor for UPI.
		Carr was a roommate of Allen Ginsberg at Columbia University in the 1940s and met Jack Kerouac through Jack's then-girlfriend Edie Parker.
		Carr stabbed David Kammerer to death in an altercation in 1944, and made a plea of guilty to manslaughter, explaining how he disposed of the body in the Hudson River.

	The Beat Page - Who Was Lucien Carr?
		Carr was content to have a friendship with Kammerer but was in no way interested in him (or any man, for that matter) sexually.
		Carr was no match for Kammerer's size and strength and in self defense, stabbed him to death (ironically) with a Boyscout pocketknife.
		Lucien Carr isn't considered a beat writer or a true member of the "Beat Generation" by most, but he is responsible for the "meeting of the minds" of its most prominent writers and visionaries and was associated directly with many of them.

	Telegraph \| News \| Lucien Carr
		Lucien Carr, who died on Friday aged 79, brought together the "Beat Generation" of low-life poets, writers and drug-takers when he introduced Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg to each other in 1943.
		Lucien Carr was born on March 1 1925 and grew up at St Louis, where he met William Burroughs, 11 years his senior, and Burroughs's tall, red-bearded friend Kammerer, who was Lucien's scoutmaster and developed a homosexual fixation on the boy.
		Carr pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the first degree and was sentenced to one to 20 years.

		Lucien Carr, the "fallen angel" of beat generation mythology, has died of cancer at the age of 79.
		There is much evidence to suggest that Carr had been a troubled and unstable young man. While at the University of Chicago, he attempted to commit suicide with his head in an unlit gas oven, and told a psychiatrist that it had been a performance, a work of art.
		Carr is survived by his second wife, Sheila Johnson; three sons (one of whom is the novelist and military historian Caleb Carr) from his first marriage, to Francesca von Hartz; and by Kathleen Silvassy, his companion during the last years of his life.

	Lucien Carr \| The San Diego Union-Tribune
		Lucien Carr, one of the founders and one of the last of the Beat Generation of poets and writers, although one who never wrote poetry or novels, died Jan. 28.
		Carr served as an inspirational muse to a group of college chums at Columbia University in the 1940s: poet Allen Ginsberg and novelists William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, writers who a decade later changed the course of American letters at coffeehouses in San Francisco and New York.
		Carr, to the consternation of his fellow Beats, took a job with United Press in New York and spent the rest of his career, until his retirement in 1993, with the wire service, mostly as the news editor supervising the agency's report for morning newspapers.

	Lucien Carr -- Beat writers' muse
		Lucien Carr, who brought together, befriended and served as muse for novelists Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs and poet Allen Ginsberg, the three writers who formed the core of literature's Beat Generation, has died.
		Carr's New York City loft in 1951, Kerouac was experimenting with a new writing technique he called "spontaneous prose." But, as a former speed-typing champion, he felt stymied in spewing out thoughts and expressions nonstop by stopping to change sheets of typing paper.
		Carr remained close to Kerouac, Burroughs and Ginsberg until their deaths, although he had brought a measure of controversy to them and to Columbia early in their acquaintance by killing a man who had made unwanted advances toward him in 1944.

	Trying to get a bead on the Beat’s mysterious muse
		Carr, who died in January, shook up the campus in the early ’40s when he was involved in a killing, which is still shrouded in mystery.
		While Carr never became one of the important Beat writers, he served as a nudge, an intellectual spur and a catalyst for the likes of Kerouac, Ginsberg and others — an irony considering that his major career would be as editor for a world news service.
		To wit: Carr had gone to the local police station near Columbia and had told the desk officer he was responsible for killing a man who had been stalking him and had assaulted him, and that the killing was in self-defense.

		Carr has certainly done his homework: After training as a historian, he wrote two best-selling novels - "The Alienist" and "The Angel of Darkness" - that illuminated the downside of the Industrial Revolution in New York.
		Carr is single and has no children, but he worries a lot about kids, anyway.
		Perhaps this is because Carr himself had a childhood marred by violence: His father, Lucien Carr - a seminal figure in the Beat movement, famous for introducing Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg to each other - once killed a man whom he said was a homosexual stalker, and spent two years in prison for it.

		The three became good friends, whose sprees got Burroughs kicked out of his rooming house and culminated in Carr confined in a mental ward after an apparent attempted suicide with a gas oven (one version of the story holds that this was a way of avoiding military service).
		In mid-August, 1944, Lucien Carr killed him with a boyscout knife in what may have been self defense after an altercation in a park on the Hudson river.
		Carr turned himself in the next morning and Kerouac and Burroughs were both charged as accessories to the crime.

		Carr spent eighteen months creating the world of "The Angel of Darkness." He researched the criminological discoveries made up to the point his novel takes place (1897) -- hair sampling, ballistic matching -- and then worked them into Kreizler's investigative process.
		His father, Lucien Carr, was a Columbia University contemporary of Jack Kerouac who reportedly killed a man in self-defense, disposed of evidence with Kerouac's help and spent two years in jail.
