Frank Lucas

Another day i saw the American Gangster movie which I liked very much and aroused me the curiosity to go look on the internet the history on which the film deals - the life of a gangster and an american drug trafficker - Frank Lucas.

Frank Lucas was born in 1930, and today should be around 78 years. I don't know where he is right now but he is a personality that will probably have many "cool" life stories to tell and many lessons to give too.

Born in North Carolina, but then moved to New York and here was driver for 15 years of a gentleman who represents the school of life for him because he had never attended a traditional school.

Frank has become one of the biggest gangsters in New York after the death of this subject and in a few years joined a large fortune! Later was caught and sentenced but that has been mitigated by his collaboration with the authorities in the capture of many other gangsters and corrupt policemen. This was a world he knew well.
