Disabled Homeless Arist Featured on TV

There was a show on last night that was talking about a homeless man that when he was young, he was given a scholarship to go to Juliard School of Music. The only problem was that he developed Schizophrenia and wasn't able to continue going there. Its so sad seeing this man that still places cello and other instruments, playing out on the street.

The nice thing is that he has been given newer instruments and now has a place to lay his head at nice. They are also creating a movie about his life with Jamie Fox in it. I think it is great that some one has taken great interest in him. He still has times that his illness, which he doesn't take medication for interferes with the music and art he loves.
