Your Webster's Dictionary defines outlaw as : a lawless person or habitual criminal, esp. one who is a fugitive from the law.
To many, this man on the left is nothing but that, a criminal. But to few, he is a revolutionary. Leary, who was once a professor of psychology at Harvard, was possibly the craziest of the crazies in the 60's. He introduced the world to LSD, and well, listen to Axis: Bold of Love by Jimi Hendrix and you'll understand how important he was to pop culture.
Recently however, there was a party thrown in the honor of Timothy Leary, celebrating his life and bringing together old friends. Sounds like a great time. However, YDF hasn't quite become big enough to receive invitations to events as such, TheDailyBeast.com's Kate Coleman was allowed full access to the party, which included Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandan, and Winona Ryder (Leary's goddaughter) not to mention other hippy revolutionaries. So check out her article.
Oh, and turn on, tune in, and drop out.
