Aimee Garcia (born November 28, 1978) is an American actress.
Garcia was born in Chicago, Illinois. She was to appear in the Global Frequency television series as Aleph, but only a pilot was produced, and it was not picked up. She had a role on Cadet Kelly. In 2006, she appeared on The George Lopez Show as George Lopez' spoiled niece. She was only supposed to be on for 4 episodes, but because of the popularity of the character, she was picked up by the sitcom for its final season, replacing the departed Masiela Lusha. She also co-starred alongside Anthony Anderson in the TV series All About the Andersons where she played the energetic, Latina med-student, Lydia. She is set to star alongside Actress/Singer Jessica Simpson in the upcoming Comedy/Drama "Major Movie Star" set for release in early/late 2008. She also played a brief part in the movie Dragon Wars (also known as D - Wars) as the best friend of the lead female protagonist Amanda Brooks. The role was a momentary turn around for Aimee, who had usually starred in movies aimed at younger audiences such as Cadet Kelly as her character is shown as cadet. She stars with Hilary Duff only for a few moments of the film.
A Chicago native, she made her professional stage debut at the age of seven in Paul Mejia's Cinderella at The Auditorium Theatre. She joined the Young People's Company, whose alumni include John Cusack, Joan Cusack, Jeremy Piven, Lili Taylor (I), and Aidan Quinn (I). While attending Northwestern University, she was put under a two-year contract with Paramount Television after Norman Lear hand-picked her to headline his pilot-in-development, The Chavez Family.
