   What did David Frye look like before he became president?

   • Even in those early days, though, before he morphed into America’s weirdest, saddest president for a living, David Frye was an unlikely candidate for mega-stardom.

   Who is David Frye in The Amorous Busboy?

   • The David Frye who emerges in The Amorous Busboy is a morbid, joyless careerist.
