Serrano, a Spurs super fan who authored "Basketball (And Other Things)" and "The Rap Year Book," attended Southwest High School.
He is currently working with ABC on developing a sitcom based on his life growing up in a big, Mexican family.
Serrano is in the process of writing a script for ABC, but will have to contend with other storylines for a chance to have his ideas make it on air. In November, ABC purchased a "put-pilot," meaning they committed to making a pilot episode of Serrano's storyline, and if the pilot doesn't air, ABC will owe the producers money.
