| In 1957 <b>Ed Sanders</b> first read Allen Ginsberg's <i>Howl and other poems</i> and started to read the poem to anybody who would listen. School officials' admonitions to stay away from such "despicable ravings of a homo" were ignored, and before the year was up he'd be suspended for refusing to stop bringing "filth" onto school property. After graduating from high school, Sanders and a friend "got really loaded and then said goodbye. <i>I'm going to New York to become a poet.</i>"

| In 1964 Ed Sanders and <b>Tuli Kupferberg</b> founded the literate-tone folk rock band the <b>Fugs</b>: they "chanted poetry, wrote songs and did a lot of partying". Among Sanders' other ventures in the 1960s were the Peace Eye Bookstore on East 10th Street in Manhattan, and a journal called <i>Fuck You (A magazine of the arts)</i>. Other books included <i>The Family</i> about Charles Manson and <i>Hymn to the Rebel Cafe</i>. In the late 1990s he presented his <i>Amazing Grace</i> project at St. Mark's Church in the East Village; this involved many poets, singers and other creative people contributing verses to the old gospel song.
