This Man Needs Help
I saw a duo performance recently of "This Man Needs Help" by Ray Bradbury. Is that in a collection of his stories? Where could I find that?

Thanks for any help/suggestions

I never heard of it. If it does exists, 'philnic' or 'dandelion' know about it and can help.

By the way, where exactly did you see this performance?

I've never heard of it. I suspect a case of mistaken identity, unless it's a new work or a poem (I don't track Ray's poetry).

Checked 1984-2004 in this very complete database which lists short stories and poems and couldn't find it: http://www.locusmag.com/index/

Thanks for the help. It was at a speech meet in Indianapolis, Indiana, that I saw it.

Oh well!

Sometimes reprintings or excerpts are retitled. For instance, "Statues" from "Dandelion Wine" was retitled "Good Grief" in an anthology.

This Man Needs Help was actually written by Kenneth Bradbury, not Ray Bradbury.

I know this is a piece. I saw it at competition. Does anyone know where to buy it? This man needs help by Ken Bradbury

Get your GOOGLE page out and type in Ken Bradbury. There is a lot of info you can find. Interesting to note he wrote under the name of Freida Marie Crump (if that's the SAME Ken Bradbury).

ALSO:

Try the new Bradbury website: http://www.raybradbury.com
