Hi Nedra, yes, to see and be a part of a play that was already playing extra-ordinarily well, get refined from moment-to-moment each day in rehearsal, and then to see those sections of the play explode with clarity, spontaneity, and meaning on an ongoing bases over a year, was a life changing moment for all involved. For some perspective, this production immediately preceded, "Scarface"and so, Al Pacino brought his "A" game into that movie. So it's no wonder that with his "A" game in place he would have made such an huge impact, with "Scarface." Some day I'll tell you the stories about how both Jimmy and I were run through the gauntlets of auditions for that movie by Brian DePalma.

Hello Jose,

I wrote an article on James that was published on this web site (it's also on IMDB):

http://jameshayden.ucoz.com/index/biography/0-4

And there's "A Death in the Theater," New York Magazine, in which you are mentioned:

http://books.google.com/books?id=KdgBAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA42&lpg=PA42&dq=james+hayden+mickey+rourke&source=bl&ots=Y6omMXU_eP&sig=9r561jUQsz8PKptOeL9zi8hFSmA&hl=en&ei=X5mES8_dGMjh8QaSvOCvAg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CBYQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=james%20hayden%20mickey%20rourke&f=true

I've been emailed by Anthony Hayden and by a man who was married to James' sister. I also know a man who bartended at the Cafe Central who does not claim to have known James but he met him and definitely knows that he was destined for big things.

Any chance we can communicate?
