RIP Michael Crichton. Within popular culture his work & the millions that have read or seen it make him without doubt one of the greatest authors & film makers of all time.

Description
This listed is featured on: ![]() John Michael Crichton, author and film-maker, born October 23 1942; died November 4 2008 In quick succession in the early 1990s, Michael Crichton's novel Disclosure was No 1 on the US best-seller charts, the film Jurassic Park, based on another of his novels and on whose screenplay he worked uncredited, was America's top-grossing film, and the television series ER, which he created, was the best-rated programme on US television. This remarkable hat-trick emphasises the ability Crichton, who died yesterday, aged 66, possessed to catch the interests of the mass-market audience with fiction that otherwise might be consigned to genre ghettos. And catch it he did, selling more than 150m books worldwide, and seeing many of his works made into hit films. Click this link to read more ..
