Another FAG contributor informed me today Sept 11, 2018 that there is another memorial (13389424) for this individual, but without a cemetery attached. Per FAG rules the first memorial in the correct cemetery remains the other should be deleted.Actor and Professional Skateboarder. A native of New York City, he is best known for his role as 'Harold' in the 1995 controversial film, "Kids." A film by Larry Clark, it tells the story of a group of teenagers living in New York in the early 1990s, one being HIV positive, dealing with marijuana, drugs, and sex. The film won critical claim and has become somewhat of a cult classic.
