Notes About The Poem
Date written: 11/20/2021

Bill Duke

Hulking African-American character-actor, Bill Duke.
 Hollywood's most recognizable "Who's that dude?"

 The ultimate king of cool, quiet menace on screen.
     In real life, however, he's anything but mean.

Thank you so much, Andrea:-) I remember reading one of his interviews and the interviewee described him as a "gentle giant" and "one of the nicest men in Hollywood" despite his intimidating countenance and towering height!
