LEO FITZPATRICK

23 years ago, Leo Fitzpatrick cemented his position as a cultural icon after starring as Telly in Larry Clark’s Kids. He was only 17 when the movie came out. Since then, he’s had parts in critically acclaimed films and television series including: Bully, The Wire, and Sons of Anarchy. You can catch him currently alongside Jonah Hill and Emma Stone in Netflix’s Maniac. Leo has also made a name for himself in the art world as the curator at Marlborough Contemporary in Chelsea. Through it all, he has remained true to his roots by keeping a close connection with skateboarding. He just might be the perfect person to illustrate how all of the worlds mentioned above intersect in a very unique and organic way. Lee Smith gets the full story from Leo in Episode 04 of Mission Statement. It’s a good one to say the least.
