Hob Broun
Hob Broun (born Heywood Orren Broun; 1950 in Manhattan, New York, U.S. - December 16, 1987, Portland, Oregon, U.S.) was an author who lived in Portland, Oregon. Following the publication of his first novel, ''Odditorium'', Broun required a spinal surgery to remove a tumor that ultimately saved his life but resulted in his paralysis. Subsequently, he wrote two books by blowing air through a tube that activated the specially outfitted keyboard of a computer. Using this technology, he completed a second novel, ''Inner Tube'', and wrote the short stories contained in a posthumously published collection entitled ''Cardinal Numbers''. He was working on a third novel when he died of asphyxiation after his respirator broke down in his home. He was thirty-seven years old.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.3ammagazine.com/3am/hob-broun-reissued-at-last/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://writersnoonereads.tumblr.com/post/43997796701/the-following-is-a-submission-from-david-winters )〕
Broun was born in Manhattan and graduated from the Dalton School. He attended Reed College in Portland. He was the son of Heywood Hale Broun, the writer and broadcaster, and the grandson of Heywood Broun, the newspaper columnist.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nytimes.com/1987/12/24/obituaries/hob-broun-a-novelist-dies-as-respirator-fails.html )〕
