Spalding Gray Still Missing...
I have a bad feeling that Spalding killed himself. He is one dark fellow. The writer/actor was born in Providence, Rhode Island and started his own theatre group in NYC. It's a sad fact, but true... one of my favorite writers had been fighting depression over the last two years. Check out what E! said in their article: Spalding Gray Missing.
Here's a bit: "In September of 2002, Gray attempted suicide by taking his sailboat out to sea and jumping overboard. However, he stopped himself and climbed back aboard the boat. A week later, he tried to jump off a bridge near his Hamptons' home in North Haven. At the time, his wife, Kathleen Russo, told the New York Post he was seeking treatment for depression. "He's done everything he possibly can to try to get better. But depression, combined with the head trauma, and the wrong cocktail of antidepressants, and Sept. 11, have been too much for him," she told the Post.That year, Gray had himself committed to a mental hospital in New York and underwent electroshock therapy. But those around him say he hasn't been able to shake his mental illness completely."
