Who is Beat Generation poet Abe Green?

Answer 1

Abe Green was a protégée of Herbert Hunke, an anti-authoritarian figure admired by Beat Generation figures such as Jack Kerouac. He was befriended by the latter also, and his off the wall cafe recitations were often quoted by beat poets, most notably by Kerouac at the time of his disillusionment with spirituality, i.e Thrasonical Yawning from the Abattoir of the Soul. Despite his relative youth, he was nicked named "Old Faithful"by prominent members of the Beat Generation, as he often helped extract them from some difficult situations.
