VISITING BOB

摘要

One of the great advantages of being a writer is the fascinating folk you meet. Take Bob, for example. I first talked to him in Palo Alto about eight years ago. We chatted, got on, shared some bizarre and unlikely anecdotes - but like so many chance encounters, I didn't think much more about it. Then, out of the blue, I was invited to write Bob's biography. He'd read my published stuff, liked it, and asked me to document his career in the Valley. To say I was pleased would be a major understatement.
