Thompson, the founder of gonzo journalism. Matt Taibbi, contributing writer for Rolling Stone and author of four New York Times bestsellers, and William McKeen, author of Outlaw Journalist, a biography of Hunter S. Thompson, and chair of Boston University’s Department of Journalism, are just two of the special guests speaking at this year’s GonzoFest Louisville.

In addition to lectures and panels, GonzoFest Louisville will showcase spoken word artists and poets, as well as live art by local artist Braylyn Stewart and local gonzo artist Grant Goodwine, who studied with Ralph Steadman.
