Great author, I am a fan of his Martian Chronicles the most, there are so many short stories of his that I have come across that picking favorites is not fair.

Today CATO released an interesting story about Ray and the form of censoring he faced which is one many here would never consider. That being authors being coerced to include or exclude groups based on influence they exert within society. We even see that today with big name authors, most common is when their works are brought to screen and characters take on new traits; physical or otherwise; to fit politically correct norms.
