Tin Tan

Germán Genaro Cipriano Gómez Valdés Y Castillo (19 September 1915 – 29 June 1973), better known as Tin Tan, was an actor, singer and comedian who was born in Mexico City but was raised and began his career in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua. He often displayed the Pachuco dress and employed Pachuco slang in many of his movies, some with his brothers [a7718108] and [a2908219]. He made the language of the Mexican American Pachucos famous in Mexico. A "caló" based in Spanglish, it was a mixture of Spanish and English in speech based on that of Mexican immigrants.
