ONE ARM, ONE OBSESSION

We have been obsessed with finding out who the lad was in Tennessee William's play One Arm ad, above right, in The New York Times.

We saw this ad about a month and a half ago.

Our gaydar went off and has not stopped ringing, a piercing 10-alarm sound alert in our head. And as usual, we are 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% accurate.

So imagine, when our gaydar goes off on a daily basis in Hollywood when we run into and are conversing with ___ insert name of any alleged gay actors here_________________ and he is lying talking to us about his beard or sham relationship/marriage............

The actor is Claybourne Elder and he is an OUT gay actor.

He plays Ollie in the Off-Broadway play. A well-muscled Navy Boxer.

AfterElton conducts a Q&A with the lad:

AE: Speaking of being gay, what’s it been like to be an out actor?

CE: It’s a hard thing starting out. I’m an actor who happens to be out. I’ve never had agents or management tell me not to be, but I’d rather who I am to be about my work.
