In 1979, Murray, a Pulitzer Prize winner and the number one sports columnist in America, tragically lost his eyesight. Plunged into darkness, he had to find a way to write his column, which was printed five days a week, syndicated in more than 200 newspapers and read by over one million subscribers in Southern California. He had to do this without being able to see the game he was covering, the person he was interviewing or most importantly the words he was writing. Urged on by his wife, Gerry, Murray found a way to write his column: through the eyes of an inexperienced yet enthusiastic copyboy. This was John Scheibe, whose book tells the story of his collaboration with an extraordinary man. |
