Ray Bradbury on Madmen
Video Blank on Blank | PBS Digital Studios
"Nobody else is going to give a damn what you're doing,
so you need a few other people like yourself"
- Ray Bradbury as told to two college kids on road trip in
1972.
In the autumn of 2012,
Lisa Potts rediscovered -- literally,
behind her dresser --
a taped cassette of a long-lost interview with author Ray
Bradbury
that she made as a college student journalist back in 1972.
The recording was made
in a car plying the Los Angeles
freeways
between Bradbury's home in West L.A.
and Chapman College in
Orange County.
Potts and a fellow student named Chadd Coates
were taking Bradbury to present a lecture.
Bradbury had a lot of advice for Lisa and Chadd.
On tape we get to hear Bradbury
telling the students about the
keys to friendship,
why he was afraid of himself and would never drive,
his keys
to writing and telling a story,
why Mars was the center of his fascination,
what's the secret
to love, and why he called himself "a madman".
