Im a senior in High School, who is writing a paper on Ray Bradbury and his legacy in our society. However, being a new fan of this amazing author, I only have read Fahrenheit 451 and Quicker Than the Eye. Any other suggestions for what I should read or write about?

Mr. Dark
He has several writing categories in which he has left (and is leaving) a legacy:

Novels:

Dandelion Wine
Something Wicked This Way Comes
Martian Chronicles
Halloween Tree

Short Stories:

Too numerous to mention, but I'd at least look at these collections:

Dark Carnival
October Country
S is For Space
The Illustrated Man
I Sing the Body Electric

Screen plays:

Moby Dick
The Ray Bradbury Theater

He is a very diverse writer with a long track record of publications. This is just a start, but I'm sure you have limited time and resources.

Good luck.

Try, also..."The Golden Apples of the Sun"

And, take a look at Ray's poetry books, with titles such as...
When Elephants Last in The Dooryard Bloomed, or...
When Robot Men and Robot Mice Run 'round in Robot Towns

To read a little bit of Ray's poetry...
