They haven't set a wedding date, but they are in the process of buying an apartment. He's also happy to be in a Broadway hit and to be recently engaged to physician Perry Dubin, who had been a schoolmate, but they connected as adults. The fictional character of Charles Baker (Dill) Harris also has a real-life counterpart. Glick notes that his family was liberal and accepting, and from an early age he was around many out, happy, well-adjusted LGBTQ people. The plot of To Kill a Mockingbird was reportedly inspired in part by his unsuccessful defense of two African American mena father and a sonaccused of murdering a white storekeeper. Glick told his mother he needed to watch the show because he was gay. His mother, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, was best friends with a fellow professor, communications specialist Larry Gross, who taped every episode of QAF, both the British and American versions. 'I have Queer as Folk to thank,' he says. Despite the abandonment, Capote still visited many of his relatives from his mothers side. He also came out at an early age, starting the process in seventh grade. Trumans stepfather adopted him, renaming him Truman Garcia Capote. Lee drew on their friendship as inspiration for the characters Lee and Scout in her masterpiece To Kill A Mockingbird Capote based his tomboy character Idabel Thompkins in his first novel Other Voices, Other Rooms on Lee. Lee's comforting manner reportedly balanced out Capote's more flamboyant personality and allowed for access to residents of Holcomb involved with the murders.

He knew he wanted to be an actor at a very early age, he says. Lee had just turned in the manuscript for 'To Kill A Mockingbird' and had plenty of free time as well as a personal interest in crime, and so she joined Capote. The Philadelphia-born Glick, at 30, already has a considerable Broadway resume, having appeared in Spring Awakening, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, and others. 'Everyone is bringing their A game,' the actor notes. The experience of telling this story and working with Mockingbird's cast and crew has been rewarding, he says. The character of Dill was based on the life of author and artist Truman Capote.
