The Guardian has a pretty cool interview with 102 year old(!) Zhou Youguang (周有光), the creator of Pinyin. The interview is short but worthwhile.

Wow what a great interview with such an amazing man. Thanks for sharing it Luke.
Glad you liked it!
Pinyin takes a while to understand (at least for me it did), but once you grasp it the genius of the system is astounding.
