Comedian and actor John Leguizamo (Son of Sam, Mambo Mouth, Regarding Henry, Ice Age) stopped into WGBH's Studio A to chat with author and critic Ilan Stavans. Leguizamo, one of the most talked about stars of Hollywood and Broadway, spoke of Latino humor, Hollywood directors, the difference between the stage and screen, and about growing up in Queens "the ultimate melting pot...at least according to New York Magazine."
