Robert Lopez
Robert Lopez is an American songwriter of musicals, best known for co-creating The Book of Mormon and Avenue Q, and for co-writing the songs featured in the 3D Disney computer animated films Frozen (and its sequel, Frozen II) and Coco, with his wife Kristen Anderson-Lopez. Of only fifteen people who have won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony Award, he is the youngest (at 39 years & 8 days old) and quickest (10 years) to win all four, and, as of 2018, is the only person to have won all four awards more than once.
Robert Lopez was born in Manhattan, to Katherine (Lowe) and Frank Lopez. He is partly of Filipino descent through his father (who was born on a ship in the middle of the ocean after departing Manila); his paternal grandfather was Filipino, and his paternal grandmother was of half Filipino and half Scottish-American descent (both originally resided in Manila). His father was director of publications for NYU Langone Medical Center.
