In a career spanning more than seventy years, Ray Bradbury, who died on June 5, 2012, at the age of 91, inspired generations of readers to dream, think, and create. A prolific author of hundreds of short stories and close to fifty books, as well as numerous poems, essays, operas, plays, teleplays, and screenplays, Bradbury was one of the most celebrated writers of our time. His groundbreaking works include Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, Dandelion Wine, and Something Wicked This Way Comes. He wrote the screen play for John Huston's classic film adaptation of Moby Dick, and was nominated for an Academy Award. He adapted sixty-five of his stories for television's The Ray Bradbury Theater, and won an Emmy for his teleplay of The Halloween Tree. He was the recipient of the 2000 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the 2004 National Medal of Arts, and the 2007 Pulitzer Prize Special Citation, among many honors.

Throughout his life, Bradbury liked to recount the story of meeting a carnival magician, Mr. Electrico, in 1932. At the end of his performance Electrico reached out to the twelve-year-old Bradbury, touched the boy with his sword, and commanded, "Live forever!" Bradbury later said, "I decided that was the greatest idea I had ever heard. I started writing every day. I never stopped."

    I loved the visuals his poetry created. Many of the poems we're clearly emotional for me and I smiled or quietly she'd a year.

    The very formation of the name, "Ray Bradbury," evokes
    time and space...but, not just ANY time and space!
    Bradbury made this HIS territory, to be shared in his
    realm with those who would follow!
    His stories; his forever thought-provoking stories...
    are a tribute to language! Discovery of Bradbury for me
    was in the early 1950's...and never have I looked back!
    Ray Bradbury became as much a part of my life, and yes,
    my psyche, to this very moment...more than 60 years
    later!
    Bradbury spoke to so many. He was and is, a MAN FOR ALL
    OF TIME AND SPACE...a thinker who invited all to think
    with him! I do not miss him, for he still lives.
    Anyone who doubts this....just open a Bradbury Book;
    perhaps try "The Martian Chronicles." If you live and
    breathe, you will believe!
