Constance
As a child, Constance Marie López idolized Linda Carter in the 1970’s TV show “Wonder Woman.” At that time, heroic leading roles were still a rarity for women and although the show was based on a comic book, like many young girls, Constance found the character to be an inspiration. The smart, strong heroine with the golden lasso became even more fascinating to the shy young girl when she discovered that the star, Linda Carter was part Mexican. It was then that Constance decided that she wanted to be an actress just like her idol. What might have been just a passing childhood dream for a kid in East Los Angeles turned out to be a reality for the hardworking Constance Marie, even though she almost flunked out of her high school drama class. Despite this discouraging beginning, she doggedly pur- sued her passion and has managed to become one the industry's few actors who have successfully established themselves as a key-player in both film and television.

This feat is even more impressive when you consider how difficult it is for Latino actors to break through at all. Her professional accomplishments defy the statistics: Hispanics make up only 4 percent of the regular charac- ters on prime time television, according to a recent study by UCLA’s Chicano Research Center.
Constance Marie López has to be one of the indus-
try's busiest actors, in fact, at one point she was even juggling two prime-time series simultaneously: The critically acclaimed dramatic mini-series "American Family," which airs on PBS and the ABC half-hour sitcom, “The George Lopez Show.” In 2004, she had to work seven days a week for three months in order to juggle her roles on both shows. Both shows have now ended production, but they can still be seen in reruns. In 2007, “The George Lopez Show” was cancelled after a successful five year run, and Constance is now developing her next project and taking a well deserved break after working almost non-stop during the past decade.
