No more: Dave Freeman. pic/ap | Dave Freeman, co-author of 100 Things to Do Before You Die, a travel guide and ode to odd adventures that inspired readers and imitators, died after hitting his head in a fall at his home. He was 47.
Freeman died after the fall at his Venice home, his father, Roy Freeman said.
An advertising agency executive, Freeman co-wrote the 1999 book subtitled Travel Events You Just Can't Miss with Neil Teplica. It was based on the web site, which the pair ran together from 1996 to 2001.
"This life is a short journey," the book says. "How can you make sure you fill it with the most fun and that you visit all the coolest places on earth before you pack those bags for the very last time?" |
