Death...

E.I. Weiner has written:

for newspapers, national magazines, newsletters, books and websites

about:

movie, theater and book reviews; feature and entertainment articles; health and medical issues; celebrity interviews and obituaries; and pieces on topics ranging from

philanthropy to photography.

A little story about him:

As a newspaper delivery boy, he saved up his money and bought himself a typewriter so he could become a writer. How more Horatio Alger can you be?
