Fortino Mario Moreno y Reyes, known as Mario Moreno, was born August 12, 1911 in Santa Maria la Redonda neighborhood, Mexico City (He grew up in the tough neighborhood of Tepito). He was one of the eight siblings that consisted of 5 brothers and 2 sisters. He made it through difficult situations with the quick street smarts he later applied in his films. His comic personality led him to a circus tent show and from there to his career in theatre and film.

He won a great amount of awards that consisted of: Special Ariel and A Golden Ariel Award, Golden Globe Award for the movie Around the World in 80 days, a nomination for a golden globe award and a laurel award for the movie Pepe, a Menorah Award for El Analfabeto, and last but not least, he was honored with a motion pictures star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6438 Hollywood Boulevard.
