Streaming Stars, Then and Now

This African-American actor attended Penn Hills High School in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He started his junior year at 6'5" and finished it at 6'9". He played basketball throughout his high-school years and won a scholarship. He averaged 18 points a game and 10 rebounds. He played basketball during college, but not when it would interfere with his major at George Washington University in Washington, DC, which was Theatrical Arts. During his college years, he met Jay Fenichel with whom he would later make musical productions. Upon graduation, Fenichel moved to Los Angeles and Hall moved to Venezuela to play basketball.

After a year, Hall lost interest and relocated to Los Angeles, California. Along with Fenichel, the duo put together two night-club acts/musicals. One was a semi-autobiographical, two-man musical, "In Five", and the other was a two-man show called "The Worst of Friends", both of which played in nightclubs throughout the LA area. They also had a business where they did promotional acts in department stores for new products.

While working on the set of the series 227 (1985), he met his co-star, Alaina Reed-Hall, who played Rose Lee Holloway. They married, both on the set, and in real life. Predator 2 (1990) was released December 1990, and in April 1991, he died of AIDS, which he contracted through a blood transfusion a few months before.
