Prolific author/screenwriter and beloved Texan, Larry McMurtry passed at 84. I confess to never having the pleasure of reading his work, but I have seen his films. This Pulitzer Prize and Oscar winner was responsible in great measure for the source books or adaptive screenplays for Hud, The Last Picture Show, Terms of Endearment, Brokeback Mountain, and TV's Lonesome Dove. Maybe it's time to pick up one of his novels.
