Denver's arts community is mourning the loss of playwright, director and actor Ken Grimes.
A fixture in Denver's arts scene, Grimes had written, directed, and acted in dozens of plays since he was a teenager. He died of ALS last week at the age of 74.
“Ken was one of the greatest and he was around for such a long time -- it's still hard for me to put it in past tense,” longtime friend and collaborator Khadija Haynes, co-founder of the Colorado Black Arts Movement, told Colorado Matters.
