Erich Segal, 'Love Story' Author, Dead at 72

"What do you say about a 72 year-old man who died? That he was beautiful? Or brilliant?"

Who knew Segal was a professor of classics at Oxford, or that he was the son of an Orthodox rabbi, or that he knew Ali McGraw from their days at Harvard and Wellesley?

Or that he helped write the movie Yellow Submarine for The Beatles?
