What stuck in my mind from his "Swimming to Cambodia" was the sharp image he painted of bobbing up and down in the warm ocean water his head floating atop the waves like a receiver.

What a shame.

Yup, dead with his gray pants on. Didn't realize he was such a depressive. Sucky life. Nobody deserves that.

Terry Gross interviewed Gray's wife, Kathie Russo today as the first part in a two part series "Remembering Spalding Gray." The interview was sad and sweet and informative. You can hear it here:
