Ray also studied dance at the Julia Richman High School, where he would audition for ''Fame'' choreographer Louis Falco . Much like his ''Fame'' character, Ray had little professional training, but a raw talent that won him his role for the film. Despite being a hit as a film, the 1982 television spin off of ''Fame'' only lasted one year on NBC before being cancelled. The show was later syndicated by MGM Television from 1983 to 1987. Ray also appeared in the films ''Out Of Sync'' (1995) which was directed by his Fame co-star Debbie Allen and the 1996 Whoopi Goldberg comedy ''Eddie''. Ray died from complications of a Stroke on November 14, 2003 in Manhattan, New York . He was HIV-positive at the time of his death although it is unknown how & when he was infected. FILMOGRAPHY
