Story of a Writer: Ray Bradbury on Storytelling and Human Nature

[youtube]XESDRP82png[/youtube]

This 1963 documentary is great background on Ray Bradbury, the author of Fahrenheit 451, which all AD English 9 students are currently reading.

It’s also an excellent glimpse into the mind of a great writer, which is what all of my students should be striving to become.

You can also go to the Brain Pickings website for a thorough description of the video:
