Al Parker (born Andrew "Drew" Okun; June 25 1952 – August 17 1992) was a gay American porn star, producer, and director. He died from complications of AIDS at the age of 40.
Parker was born in Natick, Massachusetts. After arriving in California, Parker was employed by Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion West as a butler. Parker's career in gay film started when he was "discovered" by Rip Colt, founder of Colt Studios. It was Colt who gave him the name "Al Parker."
Parker began his filmmaking career when he was signed by Brentwood Studios. He made 12–15 minute loop films shot on 8 mm film reels.
Parker was a producer, director, and actor. Surge Studios started making larger budget "theme" features and not just the "film loops". Many of the films were shot out of Parker's home in Hermosa Beach, California. Surge Studios was one of the first studios to mandate safe sex practices when AIDS appeared.
As a teenager, Parker's mother encouraged him to attend The Woodstock Music Festival, believing that it was a classical music festival. After Parker was forced to abandon his mother's new car in the mud along the road leading to the festival, he encountered what he regarded as his first wholly satisfying sexual experience. After arriving at the festival proper, Parker's picture was taken and appears on the poster collage for the Woodstock concert film released in 1970.

When John gets a note from Terry saying that Grace has married and he wishes he were dead, John decides to give up his work and go to his sons. He visits Al at military school first and asks his assistance in helping Terry to accept Phil as his new father.

From 1990, "Celebrate America" was a patriotic theme park show in the Globe Theater at Busch Gardens in Willliamsburg, Virginia. This was in the heyday of live shows at the park. Every section of the park had live shows and most of them had live musicians. Budget cuts have slashed the live entertainment options at the park.

This is from an early vinyl pressing and may have a few audible defects.

Steven Pinker - Psychologist, Cognitive Scientist, and Linguist at Harvard University How did humans acquire language? In this lecture, best-selling author Steven Pinker introduces you to linguistics, the evolution of spoken language, and the debate over the existence of an innate universal grammar. He also explores why language is such a fundamental part of social relationships, human biology, and human evolution. Finally, Pinker touches on the wide variety of applications for linguistics, from improving how we teach reading and writing to how we interpret law, politics, and literature.
