Description:
Steven Johnson, wearing his entrepreneur hat, wrote, edited, directed, produced and distributed a documentary titled, "King of the Streets: The Ed "Booger" Smith Story," about a street basketball player from Brooklyn New York. Incidentally, in 1997, HBO co-produced and broadcast through its "HBO Presents" format a documentary titled, "Soul in the Hole" about the very same street ball player covered in Steven's documentary. Steven's movie was a follow-up (a part 2, if you will) to "Soul In The Hole."
Though "Booger" Smith is just now 30-years old, he is considered a pioneer in the "Street Basketball" genre (street basketball describes a style and culture of basketball players that have the talent to be in the NBA, but, for whatever reason are not).
