It was the silent generation and the ‘greatest generation’ that gave us the 60s, boomers were just children, babies and young people then.
The boomer generation of 76 million were born between 1946 and 1964.
The massive, post-war first wave of boomers hit high schools and colleges in the early 1960's and adulthood by the mid-1960's.
The 1960's are a boomer legacy.
