Arturo Gil has a rare form of dwarfism and only stands three and half feet tall. His height hasn't stopped him from doing anything unless it's a vertical issue. He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana but was raised in San Juan, Puerto. Arturo is fluent in Spanish/English and is currently on the new hit show Estudio 2 starring as Machete on KRCA 62 which airs in Los Angeles, San Diego, Houston, Dallas and soon airing in new markets. He would like to encourage writers, producers, directors and film companies to use actors with dwarfism or disabilities in films and television, to create a more realistic reflection of our world. Let's make it real.
