Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) war einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der Beat Generation. Zwischen 1947 und 1950 reiste Kerouac mit dem waghalsigen Autofahrer und Literaten Neal Cassady kreuz und quer durchs Land und verarbeitete diese Erfahrung in dem Roman »On the Road«, der 1957 erschien und sein Durchbruch wurde.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) und Jack Kerouac lernten sich 1944 an der Columbia University kennen. Ginsbergs Hauptwerk ist das lange Gedicht »Howl«, das 1956 veröffentlicht wurde und wegen seiner obszönen Sprache einen Skandal auslöste.
