George Plimpton is dead.
Author John Updike, an old friend of Plimpton's, said: "My goodness, he was so vital, full of fun."
Plimpton died on Thursday at his home in Manhattan, New York, friend Elaine Kaufman said.
I'll have a glass of scotch for you tonight, and perhaps reread On The Road. You'll be missed. Someone unafraid to be intellectual about the mundane and accessible.
