His daughter Alexandra confirmed that her father died on Tuesday night in Southern California. She did not have additional details.

Bradbury wrote hundreds of novels, short stories, plays and television and film scripts in a career dating back to the 1940s.

His most famous novels include Fahrenheit 451 and Something Wicked This Way Comes.

The writer's grandson, Danny Karapetian, said: "He influenced so many artists, writers, teachers, scientists, and it's always really touching and comforting to hear their stories.

"His legacy lives on in his monumental body of books, film, television and theatre, but more importantly, in the minds and hearts of anyone who read him, because to read him was to know him".

The author was married to Marguerite McClure, who died in 2003. The couple had four daughters together.

Bradbury was born in Illinois, and as a teenager moved with his family to Los Angeles."

 

 

Only read Farenheit 451 a couple of weeks ago. :(
