Border artist Michelle Guerrero struggled with addiction for years, but a surprise pregnancy helped her straighten out her life. Eventually, she taught herself how to paint large-scale murals, in part, by painting murals on the actual border fence. These days, Michelle goes by Mr B Baby, and she travels the West Coast and Mexico, painting huge Mexican-inspired murals in a style that is her own. Now the artist just has to figure out how to balance being a single mother with her skyrocketing success. Today’s story continues our new season of "Port of Entry" focused on artists and musicians who’ve turned pain into power. *** From KPBS and PRX, “Port of Entry” tells cross-border stories that connect us.
