Douglas Rain: Performances

A - very, very incomplete - list of where to find/watch/listen to some of DR's work. I'm not going to link 2001: A Space Odyssey or 2010: The Year We Make Contact; I'm sure you can figure those out on your own.

Also, according to his sons he probably wasn't actually featured in the 1973 film Sleeper - they say he never mentioned a role like that and that it's most likely someone doing an imitation.

If you find any of his work (film, TV, stage, radio plays, documentaries, etc) not listed here available online anywhere, let me know so I can add it!

“Caps” Caribana, Toronto Island, 1972 by Joan Latchford

Many of Joan Latchford’s photographs from this period focus on the city’s Black communities, especially new Caribbean immigrants. Five of Latchford’s adopted children were Black, and she went on to study Afro-American culture and anthropology at Howard University.
