Jackson C Frank.
Frank had been seriously injured as a child when a furnace at his school exploded, killing most of his classmates.
On returning to the US, Frank had married Elaine Sedgwick, a former model, and they had a son and a daughter. After the boy died of cystic fibrosis and the marriage failed, Frank went into a deep depression and was hospitalised.
Frank had left Woodstock for New York, in search of Paul Simon, who Frank believed owned his publishing and had suppressed his songs; he ended up living on the streets for years.
There was one final indignation – some kids with an air rifle took a potshot at the homeless Frank and blinded him in one eye
