Leonard Frey is my inspiration. I played Motel Kamzoil in Fiddler in high school, right during the time I was coming out. I only recently found out that Leonard, too, was gay, and died from AIDS. This really made me feel sad, although as a 16 year old boy, I always had a crush on him when watching the movie.

Wow, I would have loved to have seen your uncle in that production of "The Time of Your Life." You were blessed to have him a part of your life...

Leonard Frey made some very funny Johnny Carson appearances, as I recall, back in the early 70s. I remember Johnny enjoyed him, and Joan Rivers had him on several times when she guest-hosted, if memory serves.

I was a fan of your uncle's work on Broadway back when I sas a teen -- and saw that production of 'Time of Your Life' (it was at Lincoln Center) and also saw him in 'Twelfth Night' and 'Beggar On Horseback' there -- all in the mid 70s. After one matinee a couple of us went backstage to meet him, and he could not have been nicer to us, chatting and asking us what actors we admired. He was a total class act.

Leonard was my uncle. An awesome actor, but not a tapdancer; although he did play "Harry the Hoofer" in a revival of "The Time of Your Life" on Broadway.The part had been Gene Kelly's first Broadway role.Leonard couldn't dance a lick, and stood behind a couch for the entire audition.He got the role, and studied tap day and night until he had shinsplints.
I miss him terribly.
He was the most incredible person I've ever spent time with.
I hope he still has some fans out there.

Charlie, I'm a fan of your uncle's. For a long time I have wondered what he was like. And what it was like for him to work on the set of Fiddler on the Roof. What an interesting person, amazing talent. I bet he had a really interesting life. I hope it was fun for him. It's terrible we lost him so early in his life. I wish he were alive today to witness the way gay people are way more integrated into our culture, and less "outsiders."
