[edit] Early life
Carlos’ first career in the entertainment industry was as a DJ. Spinning records in San Francisco’s nightclubs, he quickly became one of the city’s prominent DJs[citation needed], befriending musical acts such as Grace Jones and the late Divine. Leaving music for a career in theatre and television, his work eventually led to a stint as an artist in residence at Cornell University.[1]
[edit] Performance
Carlos starred in the show SAL, originally produced at the Climate Theatre in San Francisco then at the Zephyr Theatre in Hollywood.[when?] His portrayal of Sal Mineo, co-produced and co-written by him, received a Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Award nomination for Best Solo Performance.[2][Third-party source needed]
Since then, he has continued acting in television, both on-camera (in Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Genesis) and in animation voice-over (Justice League, Spawn). He has worked with director John Landis and actors Jerry Lewis, Harvey Fierstein and Dudley Moore.[1][3]
