On December 1st, John Leguizamo appeared at Barnes & Noble Lincoln Center for a reading and signing of his new book Pimps, Hos, Playa Hatas, and All the Rest of My Hollywood Friends.
Leguizamo's "street-sassy candor comes through on every page of this rapid-fire autobiography. Leguizamo's riffs and anecdotes about his childhood in Queens and his acting career display the writing skills that helped make him famous," according to editor's notes. The book is published by HarperCollins.
Leguizamo first came to national attention with his performance in his Obie- and Outer Critic Award-winning play Mambo Mouth. Leguizamo's numerous stage, screen and television appearances include his Tony Award nominated play - Freak and films such as Summer of Sam, Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge and Ice Age. His other one-man shows include Spic-O-Rama and Sexaholix.
The book can be purchased at www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com and at other retailers.
