American writer and radio personality STUDS TERKEL has died at the age of 96.
The Pulitzer Prize-winner and actor passed away at his home in Chicago, Illinois on Friday (31Oct08).
The star was best known for his oral documentaries on World War II and the Great Depression, recording interviews with ordinary Americans and producing a cross-section of U.S. society.
Terkel’s son Dan has paid tribute to his father, saying, "He lived a long, eventful, satisfying, though sometimes tempestuous life. I think that pretty well sums it up."
