My Inaugural Vlog :: Celebrating Summer ...and a Cheer from BACKSTAGE!!!

On Tuesday, June 8, New York City was in the grips of its first heatwave of 2011. I took off from the survival job and hit the streets with actor-friend Robin Madel to enjoy the heat in the best city in the world. Who knew that before the night was done, I would whip out my iPhone and record what would be my first vlog?

And as I write this post, who knew that my work in EAST VILLAGE CHRONICLES would receive a Yay! from BACKSTAGE?

In his article, BACKSTAGE'S Karl Levitt writes: "Alberto Bonilla's "Big Black Mexican Woman" is a joy. Both the attractive [Teresa] Stephenson and the talented [Russell] Jordan play this original material to its zany hilt ." (You can read Mr. Levitt's full post here.)

Here's a still of me and Teresa in action in BIG, BLACK MEXICAN WOMAN:
