Gorman was an alcoholic grifter on New York's East Side Skid Row when chosen by Lionel Rogosin to "co-star" in the critically acclaimed, 1957 released, documentary-styled movie, "On The Bowery".
Diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver, Hendricks promised Rogosin he wouldn't drink during the extended filming. With supervision, he didn't; but he went on an alcoholic binge and died shortly after filming stopped.
