When a musician or author dies I usually read their obit. Unfortunately due to an early untimely death and fortunately due to a later timely death, I try to seek out the artist's works and thereby come to appreciate some of the artist's work. I had never read a word of David Foster Wallace until he committed suicide. I read his commencement speech at Kenyon University 2005 right after he died. A very worthwhile read.
