Bob Ryan visited Google's office in Cambridge, MA to discuss his recently published autobiography, "Scribe: My Life in Sports". Just as athletes have devoted fans, so do sportswriters, and Bob was welcomed by a crowd eager to learn the inside scoop behind the stories and athletes he covered over his long career. Bob Ryan is a legendary Boston Globe sportswriter (“the quintessential American sportswriter” - Tony Kornheiser; unofficial “Commissioner of the NBA”) retired after the 2012 Summer Olympics, but he continues to contribute his instantly recognizable - there’s no mistaking a Bob Ryan article - passionate, informed pieces to the Globe and to ESPN. Scribe offers an inside look at his 46-year career covering pro and college basketball and every other major sport in Boston, the U.S., and around the world.
