George Lopez News and Information George Lopez is one of the most recognizable and accomplished American comedians of his day, with a successful television series under his belt, as well as massive tours, comedy specials and Grammy Award-nominated albums.

Lopez was raised in San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, Calif., by his grandmother after he was abandoned by his parents. Much of his comedy routine revolves around life with his grandmother. Another major theme for Lopez is his Mexican heritage – he often jokes about Mexican-American life in the United States, based upon his impoverished childhood in a Mexican community. His charity, The George & Ann Lopez-Richie Alarcon CARE Foundation provides resources for community and education in such communities.
