Rico Rodriguez – Pursuing His Passion

Manny Delgado of the long-running sitcom Modern Family is played by Rico Rodriguez, and he’s actually born in Texas and of Mexican descent; he’s not Colombian as he insisted on the show. Rico didn’t want to be an actor, but rather he wanted to be a NASCAR driver. It was only then when he saw his sister act when he realized that he wanted to do it, too. Unlike rich 18-year olds who tend to dabble in drugs and alcohol, Rodriguez is serious about pursuing his passions like writing and social media.
