Tracking down Dick Davy, a mysterious "lost" comedian who once championed civil rights and antiracism

Wednesday February 13, 2019. 10:07 PM , from BoingBoing
Jason from the Comedy on Vinyl podcast writes, 'I've spent the last eight years interviewing people from Rachel Bloom to Harry Shearer about their favorite vinyl comedy albums on my podcast, 'Comedy on Vinyl.' A few weeks ago, inspired by the brilliant podcast 'Mystery Show,' I decided to do something new, as I attempted to uncover the true identity and life story of long-lost comedian Dick Davy. A character comic, a white guy who won over The Apollo, and a civil rights activist who later settled into obscurity, Dick Davy's story temporarily took over my life and renewed my faith in comedy as a potential agent for change.'
