Leslie Jordan Speaks at Google

Some of you will recognize him as "Beverly Leslie" in Will & Grace, while others may recognize him as the serial killer taken out by Betty White on Boston Legal. His most famous role was as 'Brother Boy', the cross-dresser who thought he was Tammy Wynette in one of my favorite films, Sordid Lives. (Now if you're really old and a complete fountain of obscure and useless facts, you might also remember him as the 'angel' warning a young man that he had to register with the Selective Service upon turning 18...a commercial which Jordan believed would be short lived, but instead ran for over a decade!) I met him once while working at the ACLU booth at Market Days a couple of years ago and then saw him later that week in his one man show at the Bailiwick, Like a Dog on Linoleum. He really is an engaging speaker as well as an all around entertaining person.
