The truth about Jimmy Smits I knew J.S. for many years. His Bio is wrong. Perhaps his publicity person created it. J.S. lived in the San Francisco Bay Area in his teens, that is when I knew him until he was about 21 or so. I knew him for 12 years then. I was at his Graduation as well as many people I know now who are still living. He also was not born in 1955. He has a DOB as 1952 at the latest. I know alot more and have many stories about him I can attest to. Many you may not like, but that was him back then. He seems like he changed and did some good things from what I hear, I hope it is true.
