Miles

Miles, born 1943, spent four years at Gloucestershire College of Art before moving to London in 1963. In 1966 he was the co-founder of Indica Books and Gallery where John Lennon first met Yoko Ono. That same year Miles was co-founder of INTERNATIONAL TIMES (IT), the first European underground newspaper where his first four interviews were with Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Mick Jagger and Pete Townshend. He specialises in writing about the Beat Generation and is the author of, among other books, Allen Ginsberg: A Biography (Simon & Schuster, NYC,1989), William Burroughs: El Hombre Invisible (Hyperion, NYC, 1992), Jack Kerouac: King of the Beats (Holt, NYC, 1998), and Beat Hotel (Grove, NYC, June 2000). His bestselling Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now (Holt, NYC, 1997) was written in close collaboration with McCartney. Miles' latest book is a biography of Frank Zappa.
