Who is Ariel López Padilla?

Ariel López Padilla was born in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, on August 12, 1962. Being the second of three brothers, Francisco and Horacio the other two, this "sandwich brother" has always been of restless nature and avid for attention, there the root of his multiple facets like actor, plastic artist, dancer, sportsman, writer, painter, teacher and who knows what else might come into his head.

Early young he showed an outstanding ability for acting: countless are the family anecdotes where Ariel displayed his gift taking you from laughter with diverse jokes, imitations, funny remarks, as well as trying to manipulate you with a tear or two. Dunia Zaldívar, his aunt and who already counted with some years as an actress, shared with him acting techniques, selected literature, examples and other guides that introduced him formally and with a lot of affection to this art.

As expected, he studied the career of performance arts at the Universidad de Guadalajara and participated in several productions where he quickly distinguished, especially in comic papers. Something that still highlights him in his personal life: he is the best telling jokes! Motivated to have a better figure in his adolescence he became fan of basketball, sport that he still practices.
