Piñero
"Piero" chronicles the explosive life of a Latino icon, Miguel Piero, a gay poet, writer, and actor whose urban poetry is seen as a precursor to rap and hip-hop. Piero's experiences in hard-core Sing-Sing for small thefts and drug peddling inspired the Tony-nominated play Short Eyes, which premiered in 1974. The following fame and infamy were too much for the Latino bad-boy genius, who retired to New York's seedier neighborhoods.
