His chance arouse when he was offered a role in the first episode of the popular TV series Hill Street Blues, as a gang member. He started to perform in very short roles, and worked as waiter and in a warehouse when he had no job in the film industry. Garcia began acting at Florida International University, but went soon after to Hollywood.

When Garcia was 5, the invasion of Cuba by anti-Castro forces failed, and the family had to move to Miami, Florida, where they did various types of work in order to survive.
