Carlos Enrique Carrasco is a Panamanian actor.

Personal life
Born in Panama, Carlos Enrique Carrasco grew up exposed to and enamored with US culture&mdash;as transplanted for the Panama Canal Zone&mdash;such as The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, Armed Forces Network, Bonanza, and The Honeymooners.

After graduating a Panamanian Catholic school in the mid-to-late 1960s, Carrasco wanted to attend Canal Zone Junior College, and convinced his parents by saying he was interested in studying advertising and commercial art. There, he was first introduced working in theater. An instructor, who saw Carrasco's potential as a performer, secured him an acting scholarship at Stephens College. At age 20 or 21, he emigrated to the States and became one of eight male students at the private women's college in Columbia, Missouri.
