Perhaps the most influential author of the past century died Wednesday.
Jerome David "J.D." Salinger, undoubtedly best known for penning "Catcher in the Rye," but in recent decades more known for being famously reclusive, succumbed to "natural causes" in his home in Cornish, New Hampshire.
Besides Holden Caulfield, the central character in "Catcher," Salinger often wrote about a family of highly intelligent siblings, the Glass family.
