Biography
Roland Curram was an actor and novelist. His most famous credits include Julie Christie's travelling companion in her Oscar-winning film Darling and expatriate Freddie in the BBC soap opera Eldorado. He was married from 1964 until 1985 to the actress Sheila Gish, with whom he had two daughters, the actors Lou Gish (1967–2006) and Kay Curram (b. 1974). Curram came out as gay in the early 1990s, ahead of his role as Freddie, a gay man who had previously been married and had a daughter. Curram left acting in the early 00s to commence a second career as an author with novels such as The Problem with Happiness, Mother Loved Funerals, Man on the Beach, and his memoir, Which Way to Love?
