 Kilburn's past and present on display at LC
Kilburn came to LC from Modesto, CA where, as he said, he "moped around and dabbled in theater." By dabbling, he meant that he performed such roles as W.O. Gant in Look Homeward, Angel, a play based on Thomas Wolfe's novel, and a farcical patriarch in a take-off of Moliere's Scapine.
