The Philip Whalen Archive The Bancroft Library has acquired the archive of the poet Philip Whalen, who was on the stage with Allen Ginsberg at the Six Gallery in San Francisco that September night in 1955 when the public first heard the poem "Howl" read aloud, the night the Beat Generation was launched. The Six Gallery, in the Marina district, had been converted from an auto repair garage to an art space less than a year before, and in that time had hung a number of group and one-artist exhibitions. It had also hosted performances, including a reading of Robert Duncan's verse play Faust Foutu Lamantia's work faded from public view fairly quickly, but the other poets have gone on to become something that far transcends the notoriety of their early days. They've become accepted keepers of the national conscience and explorers of spirituality for believers who dare to speculate about their spirituality. Michael McClure has won acclaim and honors for his plays as well as his poetry and essays; Gary Snyder was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for poetry and is recognized internationally as an effective activist in the ecological movement, as is McClure; Allen Ginsberg won the National Book Award for poetry, and also was recognized as an activist and leader in many movements from the anti-Vietnam war to Gay Rights. Philip Whalen, who has been a practicing Buddhist priest since February 3, 1973, has produced more than twenty volumes of poetry, fiction, commentary and interviews, including the major collections of poetry

He was 78. Whalen, who died Wednesday after a long illness, was ordained as a Zen Buddhist priest in 1973 and served as abbot at the city's Hartford Street Zen Center. Whalen became fascinated with Asian philosophy and poetry years ago after serving in the Army Air Forces during World War II. Born in 1923 in Portland, he attended Reed College on the GI bill after his stint in the military. ``He was a poet's poet,'' said friend and classmate Gary Snyder. ``His intelligence and skill is very subtle and very deep. There are many poets who feel in his debt.'' In 1955, Whalen met in a former auto repair shop with Snyder, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Michael McClure and Philip Lamantia. About 150 people showed up for the Six Gallery reading that was organized by Kenneth Rexroth, the so-called ``godfather'' of the Beats. Whalen's poetry was soon published in the Evergreen Review and appeared in ``New American Poetry,'' the 1959 Grove Press anthology.

Mark Mardon Another Beat goes down Public reading in San Francisco on Friday, August 30, 2002 to celebrate Philip Whalen by Mark Mardon One of the nation's leading poets, Philip Whalen, who was both a legend of the Beat era and a prominent figure for many years in the Eureka Valley/Castro neighborhood as abbot of the Hartford Street Zen Center, will be memorialized in a public reading this Friday, August 30, to be attended by many of the most celebrated poets and writers of our time. The free public reading by such eminences of the poetry scene as Michael McClure, Diane DiPrima, and Leslie Scalapino will take place Friday from 7 - 10 p.m. at Presentation Theater (formerly the Gershwin Theater), at 2350 Turk St. (near Masonic). Hundreds of Whalen's friends and admirers are expected to attend. In addition, a Zen Buddhist memorial service will be held for Zenshin Philip Whalen (his formal title as abbot) at Green Gulch Farms and Zen Center, located at 1601 Shoreline Hwy. (Highway 1), just south of Muir Beach, on Sunday, September 1 at 2:30 p.m., with Richard Baker Roshi officiating. Whalen, who passed away on June 26, 2002 at the age of 78, was one of the original Beat poets along with Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Gary Snyder, Lew Welch and others (he roomed with Snyder and Welch at Reed College). He was born October 20, 1923 in Portland, Oregon, and wrote more than 20 books of poetry and two novels. He was ordained as a Zen Buddhist priest in 1973, and in 1991 he succeeded Issan Dorsey as abbot of the Hartford Street Zen Center, a small Buddhist center in the Soto Zen tradition founded in 1981 by a group of gay and lesbian Buddhists for the neighborhood and community. The center continues to open its Zendo daily to the community for formal meditations.

Overtime by Philip Whalen Edited by Michael Rothenberg Feature by R. C. Travis Retail Price: $16.95 Format: Paperback, 311pp. ISBN: 014058918X Pub. Date: April 1999 Publisher: Penguin Books From the Publisher: Overtime is an important and long-overdue addition to contemporary poetry, collecting poems written over the past 47 years, all of them out-of-print. With an introduction by Leslie Scalapino, Whalen's sweeping and highly influential work is made available to a new generation of readers, fans of the Beat Movement, and students of poetry." "Whalen was a cornerstone of the Beat Movement in San Francisco in the 1950's and 1960's; with his college roommate Gary Snyder, along with Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Diane di Prima, Charles Olson, and Robert Creeley, Whalen helped build a brand-new poetry-wild, bathed in the stream-of-consciousness, and fiercely independent. In particular, Whalen's was a poetry of Zen meditation and scholarship. Incredibly well-read in the entire range of world literature, Philip Whalen brought to the Beat Movement its careful, measured observations and celebrations of the natural world." "At the same time, Whalen was the most formally radical of the Beats, blowing up accepted shapes and expectations of poetry to make room for continuous experimentation; his poems are graphs of the mind in the act of creating. Included in Overtime are several drawings, sketches and doodles which accompanied various poems . . . Philip Whalen's poetry is filled with scholarship, protest, humor and experimentation."

Cont'd from page 1 . . . One interesting fact about Whalen, and how he writes, is that he writes every thing by hand. In addition he writes it in calligraphy with all kinds of doodles and pictures scribbled on the page with the poem, as part of the poem. Rothenberg spoke about how Whalen constructed his work. "The calligraphy is important because you see it in the work of Whalen. And you see it these poems he hand wrote. Calligraphy made Whalen sensitive to the proportion of letters and capitals and to the spacing of poems. This led him to become an innovator and stylist. You can look at writings by these guys and they all do this kind of calligraphy we have talked about. The book called Highgrades, Doodles, and Poems (San Francisco Coyote Journal, 1966) has only reproductions of his doodles and stuff. In fact, in Overtime , we have reproduced a few examples of his calligraphy, doodlings, and drawings. There's the drawing of himself and his drowning in a word ocean., and on 162 and 170 [are examples of] exactly what I am talking about. So much of his work was done just like this. It was a fantastic thing he was doing with that." What I also noticed about Whalen's poems was that he had a date recorded in half, Roman numerals, and half regular notation throughout the book. I asked Rothenberg about this. "He dated everything this way. It is his way of giving a sense of place. He kept a very strong record of the date and the place, and that was kind of a formula. It was a very Whalen thing. The Roman numeral is the month. A lot of people were influenced by it. It became part of the poem in a way . . . knowing where you were and the times and dates and place."

In Memoriam, Philip Whalen Introduction: Between 1980 and 1985, I studied with Philip Whalen during his more-or-less yearly appearances at Naropa Institute. During the last three years it was more of a general assistant than a student. Later, Philip had triple-bypass heart surgery and, complicating his life even more, he was also not only legally blind (due to a screw-up on his cataract medicine at the hospital) but Sensei of the Hartford Street Zen Center and AIDS hospice. When I heard about his situation, I got this wild idea to write him a letter and offer my services as an assistant during his convalescence. To my amazement, I received a call the next week from his assistant who wanted to take some time off. After some discussion on the phone, we decided I would come out for a month and take care of Philip in the afternoons. What I wanted was to be able to stay at the San Francisco Zen Center and receive instruction while I was there. There was also some money in it for me. And so in 1993, I flew to San Francisco to "take care of" Philip Whalen. My duties were minimal. The main thing was to get Philip up and moving-his doctor insisted this was the best thing following his surgery. So we usually walked to the bank with a stop on the way back for groceries, and sometimes we’d also stop at the dry cleaners or the post office. Once we stopped at an art gallery. Philip had asked them to frame (very expensively) a Tibetan painting in gold. But he couldn't see, so he needed me to tell him if his precise instructions on how it should be framed had been followed. And then we went home and put it in a spare room that was piled high with paintings and boxes and papers and books.
