In the melting pot of America, millions of individuals are raised at an intersection of cultures, from multifaith households to multiethnic families. For Carlos Sandoval, an Emmy-nominated filmmaker of Mexican American and Puerto Rican descent, the cultural crossroad with the biggest impact on his life and career is his identity as a gay Latino.

Growing up in a Southern California barrio, he could feel one culture pulling him toward safe careers with financial security and a bit of machismo, while his other half yearned to embrace his creative artistic side. Then an HIV diagnosis began to drain his vitality and he sought respite with his partner on the East End. With his swan song fulfilled, and then some, and his HIV under control, a year-old Sandoval is now shifting his focus back to his pre-filmmaking writing and teaching at the Columbia School of Journalism.

It was very lucky that as a kid from a barrio in Southern California, I ended up at Harvard. I went into a bit of a depression. I decided to get into book publishing because I loved reading. So I thought I might be able to help in the birthing process by becoming an editor of Latino writers. So I wanted to get away from that.

I had several really fun jobs, including being a member of the U. Eventually, I felt like I could no longer be the bright, young thing, so law school was the route to go. In terms of my ethnic identity, I felt at that point, in my naivete, that the issues of discrimination were taken care of. The stories had been told about our position in history and the like, so there was no need to address them anymore.

Little did I realize how long that struggle would be. And by that, I mean politics. The possibility of going into the public light while having to cast that in the shadow was not something that I felt would be possible to do. But I also have to say this: Being gay saved my life. The de facto segregation that existed in Southern California at that time meant that you were not supposed to be intellectual or creative if you were Hispanic, but I was able to express that side of myself through the exploration of my gay sensibility.

For me, it was about how do I succeed or find the world that I want to live in. And that world was one that was much more conventional from the one that everyone was rebelling from. I was looking to musicals when everyone was looking at rock. It was punishing to me. The gay side of me counteracted that macho side. After leaving your life as a Manhattan lawyer, how did the East End help you to heal and to redirect your focus into writing?

I was able to take time off and really use our place in the Hamptons as a retreat where I could spend time in solitude, and that allowed me to do a lot of experimentation. My writing went on to take several forms, including a couple of plays — one that got a reading at the Jungle Theater in Minneapolis — and some essay writing …. I came across the incident of the hate-based attempted murder of two Mexican day laborers in the town of Farmingville.

The headline, stating that the assailants wanted to kill some Mexicans, struck me, and I was deeply hurt, offended and angered by that. I felt that something should be done. Not only was there an actual creative space that the East End gave me, but also being on the island attuned me more to what was going on around Long Island.

That combination of things led to that first piece … and the way that I approached that was kind of nuanced and balanced, applying my University of Chicago law and economics background to that and trying to see who actually was bearing the cost and reaping the benefits of the day laborer population that had descended on the town.
