Eddie Guerra, hails from the lone star state of Texas. He grew up in Houston, and began his writing career in high school when he joined Tempest Comics. There, he wrote on several books with local and international artists. Upon graduation, he moved to Boston, MA where he began working at the Harvard University Coop in the art and print department. 

He returned to Houston where he attended college after working several years on the East Coast. During his college years, he worked in communications for NASA/Ford Aerospace developing marketing materials, mission badges, and presentations. After NASA, he accepted a position as Marketing Manager for Galaxy Communications, developing nationwide publications and TV commercials. Desiring to expand his talent, he continued refining his writing skills creating marketing materials and proposals for Deloitte & Touché and Ernst & Young. In the late 90’s he joined ConocoPhillips where he created web-based media and produced weekly video streams for internal communications. 

In 2002, he won a Silver Addy and an Excalibur Award for his work on the United Way and Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo campaigns.

Following his dream, Eddie moved to California and accepted a position at DreamWorks animation. There, he worked on several films such as a “Shrek”, “Flushed Away” and “Madagascar”. While at DreamWorks, he started writing content for Film & TV. In 2005 he wrote various screenplays including “White Death”, a horror about an ancient salt mine in Poland crossing into the supernatural world, “Serial Killers” a Dexter type film about a family who hunts down serial killers, “JoJo Eternity” a reverse ET type story of an astronaut that crash lands on an alien world, finding herself in an advanced civilization needing to get home, and “Soul Diver” a sci-fi horror about a team of supernatural treasure hunters that develop a technology to see the ghost world and find themselves battling an evil that rips their team apart.

In 2009, he returned to Houston, Texas and started GEMedia, writing and producing entertainment packages for Party on the Plaza Houston. Working with local and international talent, he shot and produced video content on location throughout the gulf coast including Beyoncé’s House of Dereon.

Eddie lives by the motto, “Leave nothing unsaid” because it has a powerful new meaning to him. Along with how it inspires his writing and storytelling, it has a much greater meaning to him in his personal life.  He was diagnosed with cancer in 2018, and fought a four-year battle which transformed his life completely. Now, Eddie creates new original stories across a range of genres in Book, Film and Television.
