- The title role of "Michael, A Gay Son" was played by David Douglas Kelley (1951-1996) who is much loved as an exceptional man and for his high-profile professional and volunteer work. He co-founded the Toronto Counselling Centre for Lesbian and Gays in 1981, was a director of the AIDS Committee of Toronto, and was appointed co-chair of the Ontario government's Committee on AIDS by the Health Minister. David was very proud of his work in this pioneering film, and he was familiar to a generation of young people who saw the film in high schools, universities and on television throughout North America for well over a decade after the film's initial release. David succumbed to AIDS on April 25, 1996 at age 44. The David Kelley Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer (LGBTQ) Counselling Program in Toronto, Canada was named in recognition of David and his contributions.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Bruce Glawson
