James Deen was an influential Hollywood actor, who died young, while driving his sportscar.
Dean was considered very handsome, and hid his sexuality so he could play the love interest in movies.[1]
His draft board classified him as "4F", after he told them he was a homosexual.[1]

The further adventures of the Human Ashtray were featured in Babylon II. According to Anger, Dean avoided the Korean War by informing his draft board back home in Indiana that he was homosexual.

For those compelled to know, Anger cleared up the mystery of Dean’s Brando-like scratching in Rebel Without a Cause. Method acting tics? Not at all. 'James Dean was host to a thriving colony of crabs.'
