May someone tell me what happenned to Timothy Leary ? Was he a C.I.A. Spy or, was he, kind of true?

Question

I know he was the lead peoples in the sixtie, I think toward the "Illumination provided by LSD-25", that It open mind, etc. And suddenlly he disapeared without traces.

Answer 1

Well he was quite visible in public til he died (in the 90's I think) He was an advocate for LSD and free thinking and he was the person that the phrase "tune in turn on drop out" is attributed to. He was a professor so I guess that makes him "kind of true" and since he was a real living person then he is very true. I doubt very very much he had anything to do CIA operations, not sure where you might have heard that?

Answer 2

Timothy Leary - Born October 22, 1920 - Springfield, Masschusetts. Died - May 31, 1996 - Los Angeles, California.
Had nothing to do with the CIA nor was he a spy.
He was a psychologist whose research on the effects of mind-altering drugs in the early '60's led to fame as a symbol of the American counter culture movement.

Answer 3

he fled the country to keep from getting thrown in jail by nixon. theres a biography on him at wikipedia.org
