Lorimer the Shepherd King creator rises from stage apprentice
David Lorimer grows from a Dearborn super to a leading theater figure, studying in Colgate and Oxford, then mastering English and French drama. His pivotal move comes after befriending Wilton Lackaye, guiding him toward a professorship and a star turn in the Dearborn stock company. He later stages The Shepherd King, drawing on six weeks in New York’s ghetto to master ancient customs and armor making.
