Born Joyce Glassman to a Jewish family in Queens, New York, Joyce was raised on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, just around the corner from the apartment of William S. Burroughs and Joan Vollmer Burroughs. Allen Ginsberg and Kerouac were frequent visitors to Burroughs' apartment.
At the age of 13, Joyce rebelled against her controlling parents and began hanging out in Washington Square. She matriculated at Barnard College at 16, failing her graduation by one class. It was at Barnard that she became friends with Elise Cowen (briefly Allen Ginsberg's lover) who introduced her to the Beat circle. Ginsberg arranged for Glassman and Kerouac to meet on a blind date.
Joyce was married briefly to abstract painter James Johnson, who was killed in a motorcycle accident. From her second marriage to painter Peter Pinchbeck, which ended in divorce, came her son, Daniel Pinchbeck, also an author and co-founder of Open City literary magazine.
Since 1983 she has taught writing, primarily at Columbia University's MFA program, but also at the Breadloaf Writers Conference, the University of Vermont and New York University. In 1992 she received an NEA grant.

Biography of Jack Kerouac
好看。开始读起来就完全放不下。不光是为了了解Jack Keouac读的。通过这本书还了解了很多50-80年代间的纽约和生活在纽约的hippies!Joyce Johnson还真是一枚奇女子了。

评分A truthful record of the start of the Beat generation./ And the auther Joyce, the talented young girl who finished her first musical score before 20 as her mother wished, and who went to collage at an early age of 15, put two clues of her life and Jack's in a rather elaborate manner.// In all, I spend several afternoons to finish this nice reading.
