#	Quote
1	Frankly, I've not been pleased with most of what I've had to do. I have a considerable amount of experience, and what they've asked me to do has not demanded that much of me.
2	The [Superfly] experience left me upset. Controversy served to obscure my performance, which was not an easy thing to pull off. Outside New York, people assumed I really was a hustler. 'Superfly' took me from relative obscurity, but I haven't been offered that many roles since.

#	Fact
1	Had a superb singing voice and loved to sing opera.
2	Was long time friends with R&B legend and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Solomon Burke.
3	Was offered a role in the 1988 Keenon Ivory Wayans Film, "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" and in the 1990 "Superfly" remake "The Return of Superfly" but he turned down both roles.
4	Flunking out of Ohio State University, his acting career was triggered after seeing "Finian's Rainbow" by chance at the Karamu House, a highly regarded nonprofessional company that had presented interracial casting since 1913. He won a chorus role in a musical and stayed with the company for six years.
5	Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2000.
