From deaf gangster to Hollywood gang-star, actor Gabriel Martinez shares his unique life growing up hard-of-hearing in the 'hood. Once a lost and mischievous youth embraced by the brotherhood of his urban clique, Gabriel grudgingly faced incident after incident of disreputable violence, mistaken identity, and inadvertent miscommunication. Spot Gabriel on the street nowadays, and you might mistaken him as a criminal, a perpetrator, or even a gangbanger, but he's left his life as a gangster to play one on TV.
