"Bradford believes in the human comedy the way
DiMaggio believes in baseball, the way Nureyev believes in the dance, the way
people, no matter what, believe in laughing when they might just as well be
weeping."
--Richard Condon, author of The Manchurian Candidate and Prizzi's
Honor
Born in 1932, Richard Bradford has spent most of his adult
life in New Mexico, a landscape to which he pays homage in both of his novels, Red
Sky at Morning and So Far from Heaven. Before the 1968 publication of
Red Sky at Morning-- which many reviewers favorably compared to such
coming-of-age novels as The Catcher in the Rye and To Kill a
Mockingbird--Bradford had worked as a technical writer, a promoter of
tourism, and an environmental-impact analyst.
