which famous writer 'died of fame'

which famous writer is said to have died of fame Has anyone any suggestions PLEASE!

this is just a shot in the dark, but that statement could be applied to Jack Kerouac, the "beat generation's Kurt Cobain".

Molokai, you read my mind. My first thought would also have been Kerouac.

Truman Capote?
