Henri, Adrian Maurice

Henri, Adrian Maurice
▪ 2001

      British poet and artist (b. April 10, 1932, Birkenhead, Cheshire [now Merseyside], Eng.—d. Dec. 20, 2000, Liverpool, Eng.), was one of the three “Merseybeat” poets who gained renown when their works were published in The Mersey Sound (1967), which remained a best-seller. He was primarily a painter, however, and he also led the Liverpool Scene rock and poetry band, taught, and wrote children's books and stage and television plays.
