Description

"Milan Melvin was one of the most fascinating figures out of the sixties. In fact, a case could be made that he helped to shape the time of our lives. Peter Laufer is one of the sharpest journalists out of the sixties. In one of his last major decisions, Milan asked Peter to help him tell his story. Together they do, and it is one for the ages. Light up, buckle up and enjoy the flight. " -- Ben Fong-Torres "In a world of posers, Milan was the rare real thing. An adventurer and a strong friend. My friend. " -- David Crosby "When Milan Melvin rose point astride his iron palomino Harley, our caravan slept easy in the sixties, knowing he had one eye on the bad guys and heaven in his holster. " -- Wavy Gravy "Lean, lanky, self-contained, charming, and a natural gentleman - one of a dying breed even then. " -- Joan Baez Milan Melvin was a driven, elusive, creative, lovable adventurer who colored the lives of all around him. His many-faceted career started with a stint as an undercover operator for the FBI at UC Berkeley - until he started falsifying reports. He went on to trade Native American jewelry, import marijuana, hang with Hell's Angels, co-found alternative radio - notably the legendary KSAN San Francisco - work on films, produce music, befriend Janis Joplin, and marry Mimi Farina, the sister of Joan Baez, who wrote her very first song about him. Leaving America for 10 years, he lived with Tibetan Khampa guerrillas, funded a daycare center for Tibetan refugee children in Nepal, smuggled gems out of India, Burma and China, and manufactured jewelry in Thailand, before settling in Bali. On his return, Milan worked with film director Carl Gottlieb on "Caveman," appeared on "Saturday Night Live," produced TV shows and managed the acting career of former Oakland Raider John "Tooz" Matuszak. Returning to charitable work, he and his wife Georgeanne raised and funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of medical and material aid to anti-government organizations during El Salvador's civil war. In his last decade Milan lived with his wife in seclusion in Wolf Creek, Oregon, before moving to Mexico for his final adventures.
