Louis Diaz was never a gangster, but he played one in real life.
If you live down the street from Diaz in Costa Mesa, Calif., you probably have no idea that you are neighbors with one of the most successful undercover agents in law enforcement history. Seriously, Diaz was an agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration in the 1970s when he infiltrated a notorious New York City organization headed by heroin dealer Leroy "Nicky" Barnes.
The story of how he worked his way into Barnes' inner circle is a focal point of Diaz' fascinating memoir "Dancing with the Devil," which was published last year by Simon and Schuster and is now in paperback.
"Dancing with the Devil" is a breathtaking account of one agent's war on crime, and it will make a great gangster film one day, and there might even be a role in it for Diaz, who has acted in a number of movies and TV shows.
In the interest of full disclosure, Diaz is a friend - we met after he retired from the DEA - and I decided to give him a call because it was time for my annual rant against "Boardwalk Empire," the HBO series that kicked off its second season Sunday night.

Totalitarian recall Yet Elia Kazan's On the Waterfront (Sunday, 11pm, ABC1), an equally bleak and emotionally draining masterpiece, enjoyed surprising box-office success. This was the first film (in 1954) to explore corruption in New York's labour unions, and its shocking |
