Description

Lefty grew up in New Coventry, and was childhood friends with Luis. His primary personality trait is his nicotine addiction, as he talks about smoking and cigarettes a lot. He is also concerned with his image, and puts on, in his own words, a tough guy act. Like all the other Greasers, he holds a grudge against the Preppies, who he calls "rich scumbags". He also talks about girls often, and seems to enjoy some success with them. Lefty claims to be Bullworth's first Italian. This may be untrue though since a lot of the Greasers are Italian/American. He complains that there aren't enough in the school, even though there are six others (Lucky, Ricky, Vance, Lola, Hal, and Peanut) within his clique alone. Lefty also puts a lot of stock in the fact that his last name ends with a vowel, even though he shares this trait with the six aforementioned Greasers. In one of the speech files, he says he thinks some of the freaks are attractive, especially the Siamese twins Delilah and Jezebel.Lefty is tied with Vance for the smallest in the Greaser clique. He resembles Ralph Macchio's character, Johnny Cade, in the film The Outsiders. He has black slicked back hair, blue eyes, and a scar on his left cheek similar to Chad. He wears a blue denim jacket over a blue vest and a white collared long sleeve shirt, with tan pants and orange boots. In the winter he adds a dark yellow scarf and buttons his jacket up. He speaks in a Brooklyn accent.
