There's a fantastic video autobiography of Donald Knuth [1] that includes a good transcript for people like me who would rather read. This has been discussed [2] on HN previously and would be one of the links I wouldn't mind seeing again. In searching for previous discussions I found a 73 page transcript of an interview of Knuth by Edward Feigenbaum of Stanford that will likely eat up part of my afternoon.
