Benjamín López
Biography
Benjamín (Benji) López is a director and screenwriter. He was born in East Chicago, Indiana to Puerto Rican parents. After six years, they moved back to the island, specifically to the town of Comerío, where his father was from. López didn't start directing until his late 20s/early 30s. Before starting his filmmaking career, he was a musician serving as the singer of the band Taba Co for several years. Years after graduating from college, a project he had worked on prompted him to start his career as a director. This translated into his first film, Taínos: La Ultima Tribu. After that, López became known for directing the trilogy of Mi Verano con Amanda.
