John Alberto Leguizamo (/ˌlɛɡwɪˈzɑːmoʊ/; born July 22, 1964) is a Colombian-Puerto Rican–American actor, voice actor, producer, comedian, playwright and screenwriter. As of 2009, Leguizamo has appeared in over 75 films, produced over 10 films, starred on Broadway in several productions (winning several awards), made over a dozen television appearances, and has produced or starred in many other television shows.
Leguizamo was born in Bogotá, Colombia, to Alberto and Luz Leguizamo. According to Leguizamo, his paternal grandfather was of Puerto Rican and Italian descent and his maternal grandfather was Lebanese. Leguizamo has also described himself as being of Amerindian/Mestizo heritage. Leguizamo's father was once an aspiring film director and studied at Cinecittà, but eventually dropped out due to lack of finances. When Leguizamo was four years old, his family immigrated to the United States, and lived in various neighborhoods of Queens in New York City, including Jackson Heights.
A collector's piece, Leguizamo's critically acclaimed "Mambo Mouth" turned 20 in 2012. Available only on VHS, his quick wit and clever timing are celebrated in the character he portrays with smarts, sarcasm and heart. Garnering an Ace, an Obie, and an Outer Critic's Circle Award, this stand-up routine gave him recognition to talent scouts and he was soon in the hit movies we know today.

Watch Freak NOW on Amazon: http://goo.gl/t2Ay4R or on Itunes: http://goo.gl/ZqdIj3 Freak opened on Broadway on February 12, 1998 and originally aired on HBO on October 10, 1998. This is his autobiographical story, about his life growing up, and his journey to try to be accepted by his father. We see this story through a bizarre myriad of characters and situations, which include the eccentric Uncle Sandy, the Fat Boy Called Bitch (John's little brother, Poochie), his mom, his evil grandmothers, and Lee Strasberg, not to mention a brief appearance by Cantinflas as God.
John Leguizamo's award-winning stand-up performance is a semi-autobiographical story about his life growing up and his journey to try to be accepted by his father. Directed by Spike Lee, and shot before a live audience at New York's Cort Theatre, John hilariously takes on every racial and ethnic stereotype. Alternately funny, raunchy and poignant, Freak spotlights Leguizamo's gift storytelling as he effortlessly slips in and out of a wide range of characters from his dysfunctional childhood in Queens, New York. --- KUSH COMEDY

A conversation with actor John Leguizamo about his Latino roots and his film "Spawn", an adaptation of the popular comic book.
The title of John Leguizamo’s latest one man show is "Latin History for Dummies". When I interviewed him for The Big Interview recently, he let us film an early version of the show while he was still in the process of writing and refining it. In this bonus clip from our program, you’ll see an excerpt from "Latin History for Dummies" followed by a brief discussion about immigration. I was impressed with Leguizamo’s thoughts on an important topic. Tune into the full program this coming Tuesday night on AXS TV at 8 pm ET/5 pm CT.
