Sara García
Acting
Sara García (8 September 1895 – 21 November 1980) was a Mexican actress who made her biggest mark during the "Golden Age of Mexican cinema". During the 1940s and 1950s, she often played the part of a no-nonsense but lovable grandmother in numerous Mexican films. In later years, she played parts in Mexican telenovelas. Known as "Mexican Cinema's Grandmother", García's image is displayed on the label of Mexico's traditional Abuelitachocolate, a company now owned by Nestlé.
