"A PRECOCIOUS POP CULTURE INTELLECTUAL"

From the New York Post’s 'Page Six' to a profile in The New York Times, the emergence of Pier Dominguez on the literary and cultural scene has been as unique as the writer himself. Sift through his press clips and the twenty-year old has been called everything from a “quickly rising star” in a cover story by his college magazine, to “a precocious pop culture intellectual” by his hometown paper. He has garnered praise from figures such as legendary journalist Jack Olsen as well as celebrated celebrity biographer Kitty Kelley.

Dominguez’s career began with the publication of
Amy Fisher: Anatomy of a Scandal, a 568-page dissection of the “Long Island Lolita” story which he wrote when he was seventeen, after almost four years of research. 

Fisher’s lawyer threatened to stop the book with a lawsuit, but Dominguez plowed ahead and the book garnered praise from the legendary Jack Olsen, who predicted: "Anatomy of a Scandal should mark the start of a long and illustrious career.”

New York Newsday approached him to write about the Fisher case because of the book, and a producer of Crime Wave was using the book as the basis for an episode of the show before it was preempted after 9/11. 

At 19, Dominguez had enough credibility to prompt his next publisher, Colossus Books, to acquire publishing rights to Christina Aguilera: A Star is Made before he finished writing it.

Before the book’s release, Publisher’s Weekly duly noted that it “shines new light on the star” and Kitty Kelley proclaimed “Christina Aguilera is lucky to have such a phenomenal biographer in Pier Dominguez,” but Aguilera’s mom called the book “ridiculous”—without having read it.

A Star is Made launched Dominguez into the New York Post’s “Page Six” and the Post ran an excerpt of the book.

Aguilera’s hometown paper praised Dominguez’s “easy to read style and inquisitive approach” which yielded “a sympathetic portrait of a young woman unwilling to compromise her artistic vision.”

In an editorial, Dominguez’s own hometown newspaper, the Colombian paper for which Gabriel García Marquez wrote his first column, called him “an example to other youths.”

Dominguez is now a student at New York University and is working on his third book.
