402) Ken Kesey

 Ken Kesey (1935 – 2001). American novelist, essayist, and countercultural figure, famous for “One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest”.

- “It was surreal to finally find myself sitting twenty feet from Kesey — the curly once red hair around his ears now gray, his powerful wrestler’s torso thickened by the decades, but still formidable.”  http://davidoweddle.com/?page_id=24

- “The once red hair is grey now, yet the sideburns remain long and sharply trimmed at the earlobes.”  http://www.lib.odu.edu/litfe…/…/newscoverage/mc10111982.html

- “Look at photos of the young Kesey, with his clumps of red hair: he is McMurphy.”  http://www.independent.co.uk/…/books-wizard-wheeze-1170636.…
