Bradbury 100 - episode 36 - The Tragic Death of Ray's Uncle Lester
Bradbury 100 - celebrating the life and work of American writer Ray Bradbury, presented by Phil Nichols of Bradburymedia.co.uk. Ninety years ago this month, Ray Bradbury's uncle Lester Moberg was murdered. Ray was twelve years old at the time, and the murder coincided with his meeting of "Mr Electrico" and his family's leaving Waukegan. In this episode I tell the shocking true story of the unsolved murder, based on official inquest documents - and speculate on "whodunnit".
