More DescriptionHakeem Nicks's grim running joke with his high school coach about how he would keep working hard and thus never "wear the paper hat" of a menial fast-food worker. Chris Canty's Bronx early childhood as the son an accomplished administrator of government programs. Will Beatty's childhood speech impediment, which caused him to turn inward and cultivate an impressive array of artistic talents.
