Best Answer

Allen Ginsberg is today probably the best-known poet of the 60s. Known for his famous work "Howl," Ginsberg greatly enriched the 60s counterculture, known as the beat generation. However, outside of the beatnik population, mainstream America likely read popular works more often than Beat Generation poetry; such examples of mainstream culture have since faded in historical prominence due to their lack of societal significance, unlike Ginsberg's work and that of other counterculture artists.
