Spalding Gray (June 5, 1941 ? January 10, 2004) was an American actor, screenwriter and playwright.
Gray was best known for his performance monologues, which address events from his own life in a style characterized by humor, paranoia and acute self-consciousness.
Gray first achieved national prominence with his film “Swimming to Cambodia”, a filmed version of one of his monologues. He based the monologue on his experiences in Southeast Asia while filming a small part in the 1984 movie “The Killing Fields”.
In the early 1990s, Gray published his first and only novel, “Impossible Vacation”. The novel is strongly based upon Gray’s own life experiences, including his Christian Scientist upbringing, his WASP background, and his mother’s suicide.
