Harold L. Humes's Human Design Chart

3/5 Emotional Projector

American magazine founder known as HL Humes in his books and usually as “Doc” Humes in life. He was the originator of The Paris Review literary magazine, author of two novels in the late 1950s, and a gregarious fixture of the cultural scene in Paris, London, and New York in the 1950s and early 1960s. He was a champion talker, activist, filmmaker, architect, and contemporary Don Quixote.
In 1966, in London, he took large amounts of LSD, which was given to him by Timothy Leary, and he became paranoid and sometimes delusional. After this, he no longer published any writing. When he returned to the US in 1969, he reinvented himself as a “guru on campus”, a self-appointed visiting professor, and spent the next 20-odd years living on or near-campus at Columbia, Princeton, Bennington, and Harvard, dependent on both his family, and on students who were fascinated by his mixture of erudition and mental illness.
In 1954, he married Anna Lou Elianoff, daughter of the linens designer Luba Elianoff. They had four daughters. She divorced him in 1966. He had one son in Italy in 1968, and another, Devin Lomon-Humes – an artist – with the cellist Glynis Lomon, in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1977.
Humes died of prostate cancer in New York City on 10 September 1992.
