Actor Michael McHale faced and triumphed over two enormous challenges in his life; a T-cell count of 4 and finding out who his birth father was.
Michael’s life has been more complicated than most people could imagine. For some mysterious reason Michael recovered from AIDS. When he found out he had only 4 T-cells, he brazenly and laughingly gave them nicknames. This alone is a journey best learned in Michael’s own voice. But there is more.
His mother revealed the name of his birth father to him on his 18th birthday in a letter. The twists and turns of this search led him on a labyrinthine journey that led him to his actual real father. Not what you would think. And, more to the point, not what Michael thought. Again, best heard in Michael’s voice.
Michael is an actor who is often called upon for specific roles. Michael is a professional clown. Michael is a deeply religious man whose spiritual path has been as complex as his other two discovery paths. Michael is a loving and generous man. Michael has been happily married for years and years. Michael is able (and eager, actually) to laugh in the face of danger. The list of what Michael is goes on and on. And, all this is, if you can believe, the tip of the iceberg. Take a look at Michael in gleeful action where strength and charm are woven into one unbreakable cord.
Take a look to see Michael talk about his life that is surely a lesson in the power of diligence, faith, love and laughter. And, yes, the power of letters!
And, because there is so much more to Michael, he will be back to Love Letters Live soon I hope.
