Ray Bradbury will be missed.

I09 broke the story of Ray Bradbury’s passing at the age of 91. Many generations got their first taste of extraordinary writing from timeless classics like Fahrenheit 451, Illustrated Man, .and Something Wicked This Way Comes. Even “non-readers” thrilled to his stories.  The LA Times has more about the great man and some video clips.

Here’s a lovely video from The Big Read funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Ray Bradbury thoughts on books, reading and libraries.

Please enjoy and remember back to your first Ray Bradbury story or book.
