He has won numerous awards and sold out venues with his one man shows: Mambo Mouth, Spic-O-Rama, Freak, Sexaholix...a Love Story, and Ghetto Klown. To add to his list of attributes, Leguizamo is also an accomplished author. He recently penned his autobiography Pimps, Hos, Playa Hatas, and All the Rest of My Hollywood Friends, which was released by Harper Collins in October 2006.
