Ariel López Padilla
August 12, 1962
Guadalajara, Jalisco, México Children:Maria Lopez Levy Santiago Lopez Mancilla
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 (in that time he was fat) he became fan of basketball, sport that he still practices.
However, his true passion has always been the classic ballet. He studied in the best academies of Guadalajara and later was hired as a dancer by the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes (I.N.B.A.) in Mexico City. His dedication and perseverance through several years led him to take courses and workshops about dance, participating in countries like Mexico (practically the whole Mexican republic), Cuba, France, Germany, United States and the extinct URSS, where he had the privilege auditioned for the Bolshoi Ballet in the capital, Moscow.
As all careers based on the physical force, Ariel knew that he had to return to its innate vocation: acting. He gave up at I.N.B.A. as a dancer to participate in the production of Cats The Musical. He enrolled to Televisa’s Centro de Educación Artística just to claim what he has always been born. Ariel was discovered by Eugenio Cobo, CEA's Principal, allowing him to have his first sporadic but constant appearances in multiple TV shows and eventually to take his first main papers in soap operas like “La Pícara Soñadora” (Dir. Raquel Parot, Prod. Valentin Pimstein) y “De Frente Al Sol” (Dir. Miguel Corcega, Prod. Carla Estrada).
