Robin Williams Deceased

[GenuineRisk]

A friend of mine who was an actor when he was younger posted this on his FB page:

"After the audition, in the elevator, is standing Robin Williams and myself. I look over and see him. I pause and look down. Not wanting to disturb him. I had just gone to a rally in support of the NEA (mid 1990's?) two days earlier and I turn to him and for some reason, start into a description of this NEA rally. How wonderful it is to see people do great things with there fame. Support other artists and institutions and then this amazing thing happened. He started asking me questions,,,Lot's of them...about myself and the rally....about issues, political climate, censorship. I remember he was very sincere and our conversation spilled out onto the street. He had a town car waiting and he seemed to want to keep talking as passers by smiled and pointed. Either he was the greatest actor in the world in that moment or he just genuinely enjoyed connecting with someone. My meeting lasted about 10 minutes, but I'll never forget the genuine and unpretentious way he treated me. RIP"
