In case you haven't already heard, Ray Bradbury passed away at the age of 91.

He was one of the first writers I truly enjoyed, and he started me on a path to loving literature.

If you're interested, there's a great interview with him him in The Paris Review: http://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/6012/the-art-of-fiction-no-203-ray-bradbury
