Jim Harrison

Novelist Philip Caputo was one of the first people called to author Jim Harrison's Arizona home on Saturday when the Michigan native was found dead on the floor of his study.
Caputo, a Marine-turned-writer - described the scene of his friend's death in a heartfelt Facebook post.
"We found him on the floor of his study, where he'd fallen from his chair, apparently from a heart attack," Caputo wrote. "He'd died a poet's death, literally with a pen in his hand, while writing a new poem."
Harrison was the author of more than 35 books, including "Legends of the Fall" and "The Road Home."
Caputo, a former Chicago Tribune reporter who won a Pulitzer Prize for his work, called Harrison one of the greats of American literature, "arguably the last of a breed of American writers who lived hard but well."
With a bit of romanticism, Caputo suggested perhaps his friend wanted to be reunited with his wife, Linda Harrison, who died last September.
My good friend and fellow writer, Jim Harrison, died today at about 5pm in his winter home near Patagonia, Arizona....
