Michael Horovitz (1935 – 2021) was a British editor and poet who was closely linked with the Beat generation of the 1950s and 1960s. He believed that poetry should be freed from the printed page and that it has the power to challenge the establishment. He collaborated with musicians such as Paul Weller and was often to be seen walking round west London in his signature brightly-coloured outfits.
