His father was an actor and performed locally. His mother was an insurance agent. He has 2 sisters and their names are Barbara and Nancy. His brother’s name is Thomas. He had an interest in music but it was mostly Piano. He regularly played the organ at Bethesda Episcopal Church. David found out he had a love for drama when he went to High School. When he graduated in 1977, he earned the Yaddo Medal. The Yaddo Medal is to show academic achievement and personal character. He still had a very strong love for music which lead to him studying the classical piano in Yale university. He grew bored with the musical history lessons and realized he wasn’t dedicated enough for it. So, this lead to him going back to his love for drama. When he graduated in 1981 he had a double major in English and Theatre Arts. He had several jobs while he was doing theatre acts in the late 80s and 90s. David Hyde Pierce is 5’9 tall.

He has to be one of the most well known people world wide. I didn’t know anything about him. I never even heard his name before until I looked him up. This was very interesting to me. I don’t see very many gay actors either. He had a pretty rough start but came out at the end. Working multiple jobs while trying to do theatre. He had to be a security guard for a little while which I imagine was pretty hard for him. He was risking his life or what not. I bet living in California was hard because him and his husband got married before proposition 8. They must be getting a lot of hateful things said to them after all of that. His net worth is 30 million dollars! He would make almost a million dollars every episode, Frasier. I love David’s character as Niles Crane. He is so funny! Playing as a Doctor, as far as I know, is such a great role for

The document was written in response to a petition that requested that the Federal Government provide ten million acres of land. The land would be sold in order to build establishments that would provide care for the mentally disabled. President Pierce ultimately vetoed the petition, stating that it shouldn’t be the Federal Government’s responsibility to care for the indigent insane. He felt as if the responsibility should remain with the states. He feared that if the federal government stepped in to care for…

    Nathan Hale

    • 4 Pages

    In the small town of Coventry, Connecticut on June 6, 1755, Nathan Hale was born, to devout Puritans, Deacon Richard Hale and Elizabeth Strong Hale. Hale was the sixth of twelve children. The Hale’s had 9 boys and 3 girls. Hale’s parents were concerned that he wouldn’t survive his first year, like the two children before Hale (Lough 8). Even though he was a sickly small child, with weak lungs he did not let that stop him from loving the outdoors (Lough). As Hale got older, he became stronger. Sadly Hale’s mother Elizabeth died when he was 12 shortly after giving birth to her 12th child (Tracy 16). It is thought that Hale’s father Richard remarried a wealthy widow, Abigail Cobb Adams, 2 years after Elizabeth’s death, who brought three of her youngest children into the home (Tracy 16). Like most Puritans, Hale’s parents believed in hard work and education. Hale was a great student and had a hunger for knowledge. His father hired Rev. Joseph Huntington, to prepare him for ministry in the Puritan church. At age 14 Hale and his brother Enoch, who was 16 at the time, entered Yale College (now Yale University) which was founded by ministers in 1701. During this time it was not uncommon for boys of this age to enter college. Yale was strict but did not revolve around studies all the time, Hale and his brother played sports. They also joined a literary and debating society called Linonia during their sophomore, which was founded in 1753. The brothers stayed in Connecticut Hall together. Hale was described as ‘Almost 6ft, perfectly proportional in figure and manners, over flowing with good humor and was the idol of all his acquaintances.” by Dr. Eneas Munsen. Also his classmates and the schools officials said he was “unusually attractive and beloved.” During the graduation ceremony, Hale gave a speech that included an idea unusual for a young man of the time, education of women (Lough -17). At this time it was not important for women to be educated. In his…
