The poet Allen Ginsberg was a photographer, starting with a Kodak Retina, moving to a Leica screwmount, which he lost sometime in the late sixties and didn't get another camera until the late seventies, when he borrowed a Polaroid of some sort from Robert Frank, who was a close friend of his. When he died, he was using an M6 and a Rolleiflex TLR. Most of the photographs you see illustrating the covers of Jack Kerouac's books were taken by him.
Here's a picture of him with the M6 from someone's Flickr:
