A new documentary crowns Luis Valdez, the father of Chicano theater

'American Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez' traces the improbable arc of a Delano farmworker's son who invented a theater of his own, staged 'Zoot Suit,' directed 'La Bamba,' and gave Mexican American life a place on the American stage and screen.
Narrated by Edward James Olmos, it reaches PBS this fall.
