Joey Stefano

Nicholas Iacona (1968-94) was blessed with the ultimate in male beauty. Abused by his father, he left home at 15 to hustle on the streets of Los Angeles, changed his name to Joey Stefano, and became virtually an overnight world sensation. Yet despite his tremendous success and the adoration this brought, Joey always seemed to hold himself responsible for the traumas of his youth. A great deal has been written about Joey's drug-taking, and the mistaken theory that he spent much of his adult life with his finger on the self-destruct button. Nothing could be further from the truth as this unique and at times very moving biography disclosed. There is also a full list of Joey's films.
