My mother and my grandmother are pioneers of Mexican cuisine in this country, so I grew up in the kitchen. My mom, Zarela Martinez, was by far my biggest influence and inspiration - and toughest critic.
'Jaws' was the ultimate man vs. nature movie, and it was a movie that was basically three people against the elements, so that was the biggest influence on 'Frozen.'
I think having kids has been the biggest influence on my work since I started publishing.
Of any guitarist, Jimmy Page was my biggest influence. I wanted to look, think and play like him. Zeppelin had a heavy influence on Rush during our early days. Page's loose style of playing showed an immense confidence, and there are no rules to his playing.
'The Nightmare Before Christmas' is my number one biggest influence artistically in every way.
My biggest influence is my big brother.
I think my uncle was probably the biggest influence in my life. We grew up in the same house, and he was just a really great, hard-working, honest, ethical person.
My biggest influence is Tupac. He was a poet, and listening to Tupac is what inspired me to start rapping.
Personally speaking, I think the Beatles were our biggest influence.
