Timeline
Michael Rumaker (March 5, 1932 - June 3, 2019) was an American author whose life intersected with writers and other artists identified with the Beat Generation; studied at Black Mountain College; and found inspiration in AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) demonstrations of the 1980s.
Rumaker is remembered for his semi-autobiographical novels that document his life as a gay man from the 1950s until the 2010s.
Rumaker was born in Philadelphia.
Following his graduation from Black Mountain College, Rumaker made his way to the post-"Howl", pre-Stonewall riots gay literary milieu of San Francisco, where he entered the circle of Robert Duncan.
His account of that time in the book Robert Duncan in San Francisco, first published by Donald Allen at his Grey Fox Press, gives an unvarnished look at the premier poet of the San Francisco Renaissance.
Rumaker released previously unpublished letters between himself and Robert Duncan for a new edition, published by City Lights.
He graduated from Black Mountain College in 1955 and later wrote a memoir of his time there.
He hitchhiked to San Francisco, where he encountered the literature of the Beat Generation.
Rumaker's first collection was in 1959 in the new-writer showcase Short Story 2, which featured short stories from him and three other authors, including Gertrude Friedberg.
His short stories in the book received a favourable review in The New York Times, where he was described as an "impressive young writer''.
His first book, The Butterfly, is a fictionalized memoir of his brief affair with a young Yoko Ono, published before Ono became famous.
His short stories Gringos and other stories appeared in 1967.
Returning to New York, he attended Columbia University and received an MFA in 1971, then he began teaching writing.
He began to write directly about his life as a gay man in the volumes A Day and a Night at the Baths (1979) and My First Satyrnalia (1981).
A revised and expanded version appeared in 1991.
The novel Pagan Days (1991) is told from the perspective of an 8-year-old boy struggling to understand his gay self.
