	BookPage Interview April 2000: Larry Brown
		But Brown was taking a different approach, one probably dictated by the fact that he had shipped to his publisher, that very morning, the manuscript of a new collection of essays.
		Brown decided to become a writer in 1980 at the age of 29.
		Brown's portrait of Fay is so complete that I felt I knew who would play her role if the novel were ever made into a movie.

		Larry Brown's lethal opportunism, which has propelled him from team to team in 20 NBA seasons, reached a glorious nadir last Thursday.
		Brown's genius, we hear again and again, is his ability to rehabilitate the NBA's lepers: the Nuggets, the Clippers, et al.

	MWP: Larry Brown (1951-2004)
		One of the foremost writers in what has been dubbed “grit lit,” Larry Brown has been lauded for his graphic, raw fiction about the rural South—stories featuring characters who are ordinary and poor, and struggling with such real-life issues as marital strife, alcoholism, suicide, and the traumas of war.
		Born July 9, 1951, in Oxford, Mississippi, Brown is sometimes compared to fellow Oxford resident William Faulkner because of their similar origins and education: both briefly attended the University of Mississippi (without graduating), and both learned their craft as writers in large measure by avid reading.
		Brown worked in a number of jobs over the years, including carpenter, lumberjack, fence builder, carpet cleaner, housepainter, hay hauler, and store employee, but he began his writing career during his career as a firefighter, a job he held from 1973 to 1990, when he retired to write full-time.

		In Larry Brown's South few things are anticipated as eagerly as the gloam -- the time just after sunset when a man can get in his car and cruise the backroad fl- top, reflecting on life.
		Yet Brown is also an extremely funny man, and no matter how bleak the story he tells, his humor sweetens the bitterness, ultimately transforming his work into a testament to the ability to endure hardship (and to emerge intact, if a little scarred).
		Brown's latest book[~]On Fire, his first work of non- fiction[~]chronicles his days as a firefighter, and was perhaps written to close a chapter in his life.

		With the recent announcement that Larry Brown is expected to be bought out, the most important week of Isiah's Knick career is ahead of him.
		Suspicious how even though Larry Brown was supposedly returning to Detroit according to his agent Joe Glass (who has to say the politically correct things), the Knicks made no scheduled moves to announce the promotion of Herb Williams.
		While this doesn't mean that Larry Brown is coming to NY definitely (he still has health issues and a family), there was something in play for at least a month that would suggest otherwise.
