We meet a black man born in the United States in 1918 who fashioned a life for himself that kept him mostly abroad, mostly in Paris. Gordon Heath can be counted among such distinguished black expatriates as Ira Aldridge, Paul Robeson, Richard Wright, and James Baldwin. Their names have been written larger than his in the record books, but with the publication of his memoirs Gordon Heath moves from footnote status to deserved inclusion in the text itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGordon Heath (1918-1991) was an African-American actor, musician, and singer who appeared in numerous classical films such as 1954's \u003ci\u003eAnimal Farm\u003c\/i\u003e and 1955's \u003ci\u003eOthello\u003c\/i\u003e.
