He was a lovely, kind sweetheart of a man. And David, thank you for that photo you took of Bruce and me rehearsing the play shall not be named. I always loved the way he was handsome. Terry Sent from my iPad I'll never be able to think of the role of Benedick in 'Much Ado About Nothing' without thinking of Bruce Wharton and hearing his voice. He did an exemplary and sterling job of embodying the role.
David Sharpe.
According to reports I'm getting from Zimbabwean friends, former U.S. Ambassador David Bruce Wharton has died. I don't have much more news than that. I expect there will be obituaries in the national press tomorrow.
For those who may not know him, Bruce Wharton (we knew him as Zimbabweans knew him, as "Bruce") attended Shakespeare-at-Winedale in 1978 and 1979.
Even those of us who do know him may not know that he was beloved by Zimbabweans.
Be vigitant, I beseech you!
