Return To Elmoreland: A Look Back At The Great Crime Writer Elmore Leonard


I was saddened to hear that the great crime novelist Elmore Leonard passed away. He was 87.
 
I briefly met Elmore Leonard when he came to Philadelphia for a reading and answers questions from the audience at the Philadelphia Free Library.

I went to the event with my friend and former editor, Frank Wilson, the retired book editor for the Philadelphia Inquirer, who introduced Elmore Leonard to the audience that night.

You can read about that night with Elmore Leonard in my column via the below link:
