When he wasn't shaking up the literary world or laying the foundation for the counterculture, Allen Ginsberg (1926–1997) was something of an inveterate shutterbug, especially between 1953 and 1963, the decade when he rose to prominence. He kept a camera by his side almost constantly, snapping pictures of himself and the members of his milieu, including William S. Burroughs, Neal Cassady, Gregory Corso and Jack Kerouac. These photos, lost among the poet's papers until their rediscovery in the 1980s, represent a unique document of a group of artists who reshaped the American imagination and way of life.
