Ron Vawter, an avant-garde actor who was a pillar of the Wooster Group, an experimental theater collective in SoHo, died on Saturday on a plane flying from Zurich to New York, his agent said.
Vince Vawter, a native of Memphis, retired after a forty-year career in newspapers, most recently as the president and publisher of the "Evansville Courier & Press" in Indiana. "Paperboy" is his first novel.
