Flipping My Script
"I encourage you to read Adrian Alvarado's beautiful story. As a Latino man, I understand the pressure to be tough and the stigma against showing weakness, but also the strong sense of loyalty. Adrián, please keep sharing these important stories that shine a light on our Latinx narrative in America."
—Maurice Benard, Emmy-winning actor and bestselling author
Growing up in the gritty streets of 1980s Jersey City, New Jersey, and within the vibrant culture of Salinas, Puerto Rico, I faced challenges that shaped who I am today.
Flipping My Script is my journey—a deeply personal memoir that chronicles my struggle with assimilation, the hardships of poverty, and the battle against stereotypes. It’s a story of finding my identity in two contrasting worlds, one offering opportunities and the other rich with culture and love.
Throughout this memoir, I invite you to walk with me through the most pivotal moments of my life, from the early days of family struggles to the dreams of Hollywood. This journey is not just about the origins of my career, but about the profound losses, the triumphs, and the unwavering spirit that kept me going.
Join me in this exploration of identity, resilience, and the power of dreams. Flipping My Script is more than a memoir—it's a testament to the strength it takes to redefine your path and embrace your true self.

Beautiful memoir about identity and trying to find your place in this world after heartache and hardship. It also takes you back in time to the late 80s and early 90s in North Jersey.
