Johnny A. Sanchez has spent many years as a stand-up comedian and is a veteran of many Los Angeles comedy clubs. He has also done voiceover work, most notably as the voice of Lombardo in Happy Feet and he reprised the role in the 2011 sequel.
He has occasionally been confused with New York City native actor/producer Johnny Sanchez, usually due to the omission of the middle initial which differentiates both artists.
Sanchez was on MADtv from 2007 until its conclusion in 2009. He was the show's fifth Latino cast member (after Pablo Francisco, Nelson Ascencio, Jill-Michele Meleán, and Anjelah Johnson) and the first male Latino cast member hired since season six's Nelson Ascencio.
