From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

He was born in Salamanca in May 14, 1946, being the son of Feliciano García Leno and Ángela Britos Sanchez. He was born in the city of Salamanca, the city where his mother moved, because her husband was arrested by the civil guard for becoming a wild animal in order to survive during the post-war years. He was given to a hospice in Salamanca and returned to his mother after 7 months.

While doing his military service in the II Parachute Flag, making a jump on December 12, 1968, in Albacete in the military exercise Pathfinder II, he had an accident and spent several times in the Gómez Ulla military hospital where his love for the theater began.

In 1972 he played his first theatrical series for television in Estudio Uno, the comedy El Padre Pitillo. Making a total of 19 appearances in both theatre programmes and films until his retirement due to illness in 1983.

In 1982 he was accepted into the Benemérito Cuerpo de Mutilados, after spending more than 10 years fighting to be admitted due to the injuries he had suffered.

In 1983 he made his last film, La desconocida, as he soon contracted HIV and died in the Gómez Ulla Military Hospital in Madrid on 11 July 1993.
