By the time of his death, at age 91, Bradbury had penned hundreds of short stories, many of which are beloved literary classics. All eleven of Bradbury’s novels grew out of existing short stories-a genre he loved dearly. He’s best known for his 1953 novel, Fahrenheit 451. However, after one of his stories was included in The Best American Short Stories in 1946, Bradbury began to garner public attention.
At the beginning of his literary career, Bradbury’s work appeared only in niche magazines centered on fantasy and the supernatural. Unable to afford to college, he went to the library instead-visiting three days a week for ten years straight. When his family moved to Los Angeles in 1934, the teenaged Bradbury began writing short stories-a hobby that soon turned into a life passion. As a child, Ray Bradbury was a voracious reader.
