Albert Saijo
Albert Fairchild Saijo〔 (1926—2011) was an Asian-American poet and, along with Shig Murao, one of only two Asian Americans to be recognized as a part of the Beat Generation. After being imprisoned during the U.S. government's internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, Saijo went on to serve in the U.S. Army. Later he became associated with Beat Generation figures including Jack Kerouac, with whom he wrote, traveled and became friends.
Saijo's first solo collection of poetry, ''Outspeaks: A Rhapsody'', was published in 1997 when he was 71 years old. A second collection, ''Woodrat Flat'', was published posthumously in 2015. Saijo was also the author of ''The Backpacker'' (1972), a short book on backpacking, and ''Trip Trap'' (1972), a collection of haiku co-authored with Jack Kerouac and Lew Welch. Saijo died in 2011 in Hawaii, where he had lived since the 1990s.
