About John Lennon (1940-1980)
English singer-songwriter, founding Beatle, and peace activist whose 'Imagine' (1971) became a 20th-century anti-war anthem; assassinated in NYC December 8, 1980. Closely associated with Paul McCartney (Beatles songwriting partner and lifelong foil) and George Harrison (fellow Beatle). For an intellectual contrast, see Richard Nixon, 37th US President — Nixon's 1972-73 administration tried to deport Lennon for his anti-Vietnam-War activism; declassified FBI files later confirmed the political motivation behind the immigration case. The canonical example of state retaliation against a celebrity activist.
