Caputo

Donald Kirk <kirkd...@gmail.com>: May 08 10:29AM -0400 We lost an old colleague, Phil Caputo. After his years at the Chicago Tribune, he went on to become a best-selling author beginning with the classic "A Rumor of War."

Thanks Don. I knew Phil quite well for years. The success of "Rumor" actually put him in the hospital for a bit -- like all the rest of us he wasn't used to opening his bank statement and seeing 7 figures. I also lost track over the years, apart from occasional e-mail exchanges.
