Joan Didion’s work which majored in literature also had a perk for humanities, leading her to bag a National Humanities Medal in 2012.
“The Year of Magical Thinking”; a book written in 2005, was “inspired” after the death of her husband and workmate, John Gregory Dunne, who died of a heart attack in 2003.
Her daughter, Quintana Roo Dunne Michael, was also seriously ill with pancreatitis at the same time. She later died in 2005 at the age of 39 years old.
Many including her former colleagues have thronged in on social media to pay their tribute.
