Armistead Maupin found fame in the 1970s as the author of Tales of the City.
Best known for his portrayal of Michael ‘Mouse’ Tolliver in the original TV adaptation of Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City books, actor Marcus D’Amico has died at the age of 55.
This was an unforgettable evening with the Tales of the City author celebrating the launch of his long-awaited memoir Logical Family. From his early life in the conservative South to liberal San Francisco, from his palm-reading Grannie to an awkward chat about girls with President Nixon, Armistead Maupin revealed the extraordinary people and places that helped him become one of the world’s best-loved writers. Funny, poignant and unflinchingly honest, this was a unique opportunity to listen to the man from Barbary Lane.
