Quote:
Robert Hughes, the eloquent, combative art critic and historian who lived with operatic flair and wrote with a sense of authority that owed more to Zola or Ruskin than to his own century, died on Monday at Calvary Hospital in the Bronx. He was 74 and had lived for many years in Briarcliff Manor, N.Y.



He was the art critic for Time magazine, among many other pursuits. His book on the so-called culture wars, Culture Of Complaint, is thoughful, well-balanced, and worth a read.

I didn't know he was the original host of 20/20.
