Ken Kesey (September 17, 1935 - November 10, 2001) was an American novelist, essayist, and advocate of the counterculture movement. He served as a bridge between the Beat Generation of the 1950s and the hippies of the 1960s. Born in La Junta, Colorado, and raised in Springfield, Oregon, he gained acclaim for his novel 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,' published in 1962. Kesey's interactions with hallucinogenic drugs influenced his work. He was also a notable figure in literary and bohemian circles, collaborating with other artists until the end of his life.
