There's an excellent article on the Grand Wizard in today's Science section of the New York Times, written by Siobhan Roberts (the author of biographies of Coxeter and Conway).

There is a prominent mention of TeX, described by some as Knuth's most influential achievement, although not so influential that the Times can actually typeset "TEX" with the lowered 'E'. :)
