It was the Signature Player Team Arkansas Shirt and by the same token and first brisk autumn day. I was forty years old, with a kindergartener and a one-year-old at home. I was an accidentally pregnant, progressive woman in the reddest state in America. Adapted from Christa Parravani’s Loved and Wanted: A Memoir of Choice, Children, and Womanhood, to be published November 10 by Henry Holt.  The lineup of marquee-name Beat poets is fairly slim—there’s your Kerouac, your Ginsberg, your William S. Burroughs, along with a host of lesser-known names (Peter Orlovsky, Gregory Corso, Herbert Hunke). What you won’t find, for the most part, among them: women. There were, of course, a handful associated with the largely West Coast-based Beat scene, though many of them, from Carolyn Cassady to Joyce Johnson, were largely defined by their mere proximity to the men leading the movement, who—for all their relentless focus on freedom, self-expression, and creativity—often relegated the women around them to support staff.

That wasn’t the Signature Player Team Arkansas Shirt and by the same token and case with Diane di Prima, who died on Sunday at the age of 86—and she didn’t confine herself to merely being a poet. Aside from authoring nearly four dozen books—poetry, prose, a fictionalized erotic memoir (Memoirs of a Beatnik)—di Prima was the Poet Laureate of San Francisco; a co-founder of the New York Poets Theatre; a professor at the Jack Kerouac School for Disembodied Poetics, the Naropa Institute, and at the San Francisco Art Institute. She read two of her poems at The Last Waltz, the infamous final concert of The Band, which was shot by Martin Scorcese for a documentary film of the same name; she worked as a photographer, a collagist, and a watercolorist; she tuned in, turned on, and dropped out with Timothy Leary’s psychedelic community in Millbrook, California, served as a crucial bridge between the Beat movement and the emergent Hippies—and faced government charges of obscenity and was investigated by the FBI for subversiveness. And that’s just the basics.
