History[]
- A New York City native, born and bred in midtown; his parents were entertainers. No criminal record and educated by private tutor through secondary level with additional classes in drama, stage design, costuming, and elocution.[4]
- His first performance was at age two and he’d won a pot load of awards, always live stage, no video.[4]
- He had worked with Richard Draco several times and a couple of times with Areena Mansfield. Last time in London. He was unmarried but had two spouses and one formal cohabitation partner, all female.[4]
- Draco filed criminal charges, assault and a civil suit (bodily harm and property damage) against Kenneth Stiles in June 2035 (his birth name was “Stipple”). The charges were dropped, then sealed, and the civil action was settled for five million dollars and sealed.[5]
- He had been seeing “Anja Carvell” (aka Areena Masnfield) when Draco stepped in and ruined her. Stiles said that when Draco cast her off, it broke her and she attempted suicide; she slashed her wrists. He took her to the hospital then went after Draco. He said they did not keep in touch and that he didn’t know where she was.[6]
Interesting Facts[]
- He played Sir Wilfred in Witness for the Prosecution where Draco was murdered on opening night.[4]

- He took a brisk walk in the park for his daily exercise.[8]
- He altered his appearance to be able to slip past police surveillance (Trueheart) and met with “Anja,” the woman he had loved all his life at the Alley Cat. Their signal was a battered volume of Shakespeare's sonnets.[9]
- After he disappeared, an APB was put out on him and, by blind luck, he was spotted at Grand Central where he bought a one-way express to Toronto.[10]
- He was injured when one of the transit cops, under Captain Stuart, opened fire when he was trying to escape.[11]
- In his hospital room (Room 6503), he tried to hang himself with a sheet.[12]
