Lloyd Kahn, Counterculture Publisher, Still Skateboarding at 91

Lloyd Kahn, a former insurance broker who left the profession in 1965, became a key figure in the DIY building movement of the 1960s counterculture. He edited the influential Whole Earth Catalog and published the 1973 book Shelter, which remains a seminal reference for hand-built homes. Now 91, Kahn continues to publish and remains physically active, engaging in running, paddleboarding, and skateboarding—a sport he took up at age 65. A video by Sierra Clark offers a glimpse into his unconventional life, highlighting habits and philosophy that contribute to his remarkable aging: curiosity, adventure, new experiences, constant motion, good diet, and making life and exercise enjoyable. Kahn embodies the motto 'Stay hungry, stay foolish,' which appeared on the back of the last Whole Earth Catalog, treating it as a genuine way of life.
