From the New York Times:
Elmore Leonard, the prolific crime novelist whose louche characters, deadpan dialogue and immaculate prose style in novels like “Get Shorty,” “Freaky Deaky” and “Glitz” established him as a modern master of American genre writing, died on Tuesday at his home in Bloomfield Township, Mich. He was 87.

    Bummer. I've never read any of his books, but I'm a big fan of the show "Justified", which he was executive producer of and was based on one of his short stories.
