The Biography Project

[Kire]

Welcome to the Biography Project. This reference tool is an ongoing effort to catalog and document the contributions of authors, artists, scientists, film makers and other culturally influential individuals on underground culture in its various forms. This is direct response to the unfortunate *lack* of accurate and comprehensive information on the net regarding 'popsubculture'. It is a totally volunteer effort, in fact, it is done in my ever shrinking spare time.

1. Interesting list of dead people

Then there's Charles Whitman---how do we connect a spree killer to the rest of them?--May need to rethink some priorities there.
