America Ferrera Biography
America Ferrera, the youngest of six siblings, was born in Los Angeles, California, to parents who immigrated to the United States from Honduras in the mid-1970s. Her mother is a hotel executive in charge of housecleaning staff. Later, her mother divorced her father and raised six children - five girls, one boy - while stressing the importance of higher education. Five have graduated from college and America is working on earning her degree.
She was raised by her mother in the Woodland Hills section of Los Angeles. She started acting at age eight in school plays and community theater. She attended George Ellery Hale Middle School and El Camino Real High School in Woodland Hills. From the time she was seven years old, when she landed a small role in a school production of "Hamlet", Ferrera knew that she wanted to be a performer. She acted in school plays and community theater in Los Angeles throughout her youth, but with little help from her mother, who insisted that she pursue other interests because she was concerned whether or not her daughter would get a fair shake. Ferrera was forced to take the bus to auditions, though eventually her mother saw her daughter's dedication and began to drive her.
In interviews Ferrera has observed the contrast between the image of the 'typical Latina? experience and her own childhood, noting that growing up in a mostly Jewish, non-Latino neighborhood, she attended 52 bar mitzvahs and not a single "quinceañera". She was raised speaking English and is now learning to speak Spanish.
Ferrera's famous smile is insured by Aquafresh through Lloyd's of London for US$10 million/GB£5million to generate sales/donations for their "Smile For Success" campaign. The campaign is a program plans to cover part of the cost for dental care for women trying to get off welfare. Aquafresh claims they will donate $1 to Smiles for Success for each box of Aquafresh White Trays that was purchased through August 31, 2007.

The two have been seen together throughout Spring 2008 in California. In April 2008 they purchased a home together. They have two dogs - Buddy the Golden Retriever and a lady Great Dane.

In January 2008, Ferrera announced her endorsement of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's run for president and joined the senator and her daughter Chelsea Clinton during several campaign events in Nevada and Pennsylvania. She has been quoted as saying that the United States should take responsibility for illegal immigration and provide more help to immigrants.
At the 2007 Independent Spirit Awards, Ferrera joked that the United States will be 'the land of the free' in 2008, which was interpreted as criticism of George W. Bush.
