Dr. �dgar �ngel Vivar Villanueva is a Mexican actor. He is best remembered as "Se�or Barriga" and his son "�o�o" from El Chavo del Ocho, and as "El Botija" from El Chapul�n Colorado and Chespirito. His other notable role is in a Mexican soap opera, Amarte As� as Don Pedro, a lonely man who work as a cashier in the restaurant of his stepson El Frijol. Edgar started his acting career in 1964 as a theater actor. He toured the United States with some of his plays. This gave him vast experience in the acting field. In 1970, Chespirito needed a robust person to play "Se�or Barriga" as well as �o�o in his upcoming Televisa production of El Chavo del 8, and Vivar was hired for the job. Both shows became major international hits, allowing Vivar to become known beyond Mexico and to tour all over Latin America, Spain and, once again, the United States. He also made an attempt at becoming a telenovela actor, participating in his co-star Florinda Meza's production, Alguna vez Tendremos Alas. [More at Wikipedia]
