David Drake
(June 27, 1963 - living) U.S.A.
Playwright, actor, dancer
Born in Edgewood, Maryland, his family claims descent from Hungarian relatives of Vlad Tepes Dracul, the historical figure on whom Dracula was based.
Drake had won an Obie Award (presented by New York's Village Voice) for "Outstanding Performance" in his 1992 one-man play, The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me, which he describes as an autobiographical monologue centered on his personal and political coming-of-age as a young gay man in New York City. After its Off Broadway run, he went on an international tour, and finally, his solo show was made into a feature film.
