Brian tells an interesting story, and he's right -- it is a sad thing. A loss to American theater if he's gone. Here's an update. The "history of depression" mentioned in a bunch of articles on Gray is not some kind of lifelong sickness; it started after a car accident three years ago.
Gray's impression of Athol Fugard in Swimming to Cambodia was my first inkling of what the great playwright sounded like in person.
