RIP Studs Terkel

I am very sad to hear that Studs Terkel has passed away. I have only had the chance to read two of his books: Will the Circle be Unbroken? and Hard Times. Both were extremely good, and highly recommend them to anyone. Earlier this year I had meant to visit him in Chicago. Now it is starting to look look a lost opportunity. He was a fiery man, and always reliably interesting. A website devoted to him can be found here, and his wiki page is here.
