BLACK PICKET FENCE. (Prodigy. Rebel. Black. Unapologetic. An Autobiography.)

<p>I lived on the street then I lived in a villa. I slept with people for money until I got my first Broadway show. I tried to kill my father twice - both times before I was ten years old. I was arrested five times before I turned sixteen while at the same time I had been labeled a child-prodigy. I beat a man with a baseball bat because he punched his girlfriend in the face. I was homeless and washed myself in fast food restaurant restrooms to be clean for dance classes and auditions .<br>And if I had to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing.</p><p> </p><p>These 500 pages cover ONLY the first twenty years of the artist's turbulent life. A life of tragedy drama art and music.<br>This is a literary work that raises the bar for the modern autobiography.</p><p> </p>
