As much as we make fun of street-corner mimes, I saw him many times as a child and even met him during a reception. He was a real artist.

My girlfriend at the time dragged me to one of his shows. He was amazing. It's like could make you feel what he was feeling, joy or incredible sadness. It opened my eyes to his art and it was an experience I will always hold dear in my heart. Truly a great visual artist.

We all need to go out a beat up a mime, just to show we care.

Read his obituary in the Times the other day. Interested to learn that he was a resistance fighter in the French Underground during WWII. Helped harbor Jewish children and families from both the Nazis and the French police. Much respect.

Did the Nazis try to interrogate him?
