Biography

Son of the clown Emilio Aragón Emig, he belonged to a family with a long tradition in the world of circus. He was nephew of the clown duo Pompoff and Thedy. He and his brother Alfonso Fofó, soon joined both their third brother, Emilio Miliki, who had begun his artistic career as a teenager during the Spanish Civil War, acting in places like the London Bar in Barcelona or in the Café Victoria in Madrid.[citation needed]

In 1946 he emigrated to America with his brothers, and there had success on TV shows, first in Cuba and from 1970 in Argentina. They also lived in Puerto Rico for some years.[citation needed]

In 1972 all three brothers came back to Spain and in 1973 released their show on Televisión Española El Gran Circo de TVE, that stayed on screen until 1983, garnering huge success.[citation needed]
