Pedro and Me: Friendship, Loss, and What I Learned

(2) YA Judd Winick, a former cast member of MTV's "The Real World," recalls his friendship with Pedro Zamora, his HIV-positive housemate on the San Francisco show. Winick records their bantering conversations, observes Pedro's frank school lectures on safer sex, and grieves when his friend's health worsens and Pedro dies. The vigorous comic-strip art and pithy text are a good match for the highly visual, documentary style of the television program.
