	About Bob Kaufman
		Bob Kaufman (1925-1986) was a legend to his own and succeeding generations of poets while he was still alive but has yet to obtain the literary stature granted to his fellow contemporaries, such as Ginsberg, Kerouac, Corso, Ferlinghetti and Baraka.
		Bob Kaufman was a rambling man of the world and eternal social outsider who could recite T. Eliot and Garcia Lorca by heart and who created his own spontaneous surrealist verse.
		Bob Kaufman's intimate acquaintance with and appreciation for jazz musicians such as Thelonius Monk, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus and John Coltrane underscores his own aesthetic.
