I've just heard this very sad news. One of my favorite
photographers, and one I had hoped to meet someday, Bob Carlos Clarke

Hopefully we'll here more to make sense of this very odd death.
It's also confirmed at his personal site:

Bob was a huge influence on my personal photography, perhaps more than any
other single person. Some of my most treasured personal images would not
have been created, if it were not for him inspiring me to not settle for
merely documenting reality as it was presented to me, but to truly create
that which did not previously exist. This is truly sad news for me.
take care,
