Henry Faulkner

Henry Lawrence Faulkner (November 28, 1924 – December 5, 1981) was a Kentucky-born artist and poet known as an eccentric rebel and bohemian. Faulkner is best known for his wildly colorful oil paintings and eccentric acts, including his bringing a bourbon-drinking goat to parties and art shows. He was a close friend of Tennessee Williams, who called him "a creative poet and artist." Faulkner died in a car accident in Lexington, Kentucky, on December 3, 1981.

In 2014, the Faulkner Morgan Archive, Inc. was created, in part, to help preserve Henry Faulkner's legacy.[1]
