Another Occupy Wall Street poster child who is not

I wondered if Nayfack would turn out to be another Andrew Cole, someone who appeared to be one thing in print but quite different with a simple Google search. - Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion

It turns out that Nayfack hardly is the poster child for what is portrayed in the media as the driving force behind Occupy Wall Street – a lost generation of unemployed, hopeless, downtrodden youth with no prospects of advancement as a result of the housing bubble which (inaccurately) is blamed on Wall Street.

To the contrary, (Shakina) Nayfack is a very accomplished theater professional who has been continuously employed at ever increasing levels of theater production.

...Rather than representing a lost generation, Nayfack’s career is a success story of the American capitalist system, someone who was able to develop his creative talents, and turn those talents into a successful career.

But his sign says that he has $150,000 in student loan debt and needs help.
