A Conversation with Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury has written more than 500 short stories, several screenplays, and 11 novels, including The Martian Chronicles and perhaps his most influential book, Fahrenheit 451, which continues to sell more than 50,000 copies per year. We talked with Bradbury about his career, writing philosophy, and his feelings about being included in the U.S. State Department's Big Read Egypt/U.S. project.
