This Week in Google Alerts: narrator of "The Tree Is My Hat" obit
3 quoted lines
Writer Lawrence Santoro, 71, died July 25, 2014 of cancer. Santoro’s story “God Screamed and Screamed, Then I Ate Him” (2000) was a Stoker Award nominee, as was his audio drama adaptation of Gene Wolfe’s “The Tree Is My Hat” (2002). Some of his short work is collected in Drink for the Thirst to Come (2011), and other books include novel Just North of Nowhere (2007) and short novel Lord Dickens’s Declaration (2009). Santoro also produced the Tales to Terrify horror podcast.
The TR interview with Wolfe seems to be pretty popular.

During the fuller award ceremony, santoro's speech was much my favorite in appreciation of Gene, talking about how Gene is a great man because that's just how he is, regardless of fame, and how Gene recommended him for an appropriate project based on some scant interaction some time before, pretty much crediting Gene with starting his career. I didn't realize he was 70. He was a very good speaker. That was a very beautiful night.
