“He was spised for what he was dog, even the gay muny, but he vented morn activism, ” said Ruffalo, who his personal life actively mpaigns agast ackg and for marriage equaly, among other . There, the Wisns-born actor first beme aware of the plague sweepg the gay muny — and over and over, heard classmat at the Stella Adler Conservatory liver monologu om “The Normal Heart. ” (“The Normal Heart” tails the creatn of the Gay Men’s Health Crisis, which Kramer -found but left when he felt was too passive, lnchg the more nontatnal ACT UP.
