Richard McKay Rorty (born October 4, 1931 in New York City) is an American philosopher. In Daniel Dennett's humorous Philosophical Lexicon[1], 'rorty' is defined as 'incorrigible', which is a neat summing up both of Rorty's career and much of the philosophic community's reaction to it. · Can we improve this biography?
