Richard Leaf, an English writer, pursued his education in San Francisco and then embarked on a career in theatre. His journey led him to the Royal Shakespeare Company and appearances in notable films such as Braveheart, Hannibal Rising, The Fifth Element, and Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix. In the early 80s, he bore witness to the challenges of the AIDS pandemic in San Francisco, and in the 1990s, he devoted himself to volunteering at the Mildmay Hospice, an experience that left an indelible mark on his heart.
He says the shared struggles of having HIV/AIDS fostered generosity and encouragement between individuals at the Mildmay hospice. Their shared experience of facing a terminal illness and stigma brought them together to support each other through difficult times, which Richard Leaf admires as an embodiment of unconditional love.
