Cheech Marin
Richard Anthony " cheech" Marin (born July 13, 1946) is an American comedian and actor who gained recognition as part of the comedy act cheech & Chong during the 1970s and early 1980s, and as Don Johnson's partner, Insp. Joe Dominguez on Nash Bridges. He has also voiced characters in several Disney movies, including Oliver And Company, The Lion King, and Cars. The thick Mexican accent he often uses is a part of a comic persona, rather than a natural accent.
Personal life
Marin was married in 1975 to Darlene Morley, who co-produced cheech & Chong's The Corsican Brothers and also played minor roles in earlier cheech & Chong films under the name Rikki Marin. The couple had one child and divorced in 1984. Marin married Patti Heid in 1986; they had two children and have since divorced. In 2009 Marin announced in a radio interview that he was going to marry his longtime girlfriend, Russian pianist Natasha Rubin. The couple were married on August 8, 2009, in a sunset ceremony at their Malibu home.
