	Dan Guerrero Producer Dan Guerrero has been widely-acclaimed as a highly creative independent producer and writer of diverse programming for network and cable television in both English and Spanish. He has also produced, written and directed non-broadcast live events at such prestigious venues as the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles and the Cite de la Musique in Paris, France. Guerrero began his production career in 1990 at Guber Peters Television as one of the original team that developed the ground-breaking bilingual talk/variety program, El Show de Paul Rodriguez. He eventually headed Paul Rodriguez Productions with two El Show colleagues where the team produced four specials for FOX starring the comic actor that were a unique mix of comedy and hard-hitting documentary segments. Other credits include the NBC Vida Awards, the CNBC J.D. Power Global Automotive Awards hosted by Tim Allen and Loco Slam, a series of Latino stand-up comedy shows for HBO. He also co-produced the PBS Kennedy Center Concert of the Americas with Quincy Jones/David Saltzman Entertainment. President Clinton and 34 leaders of Western Hemisphere countries attended the star-driven concert celebrating the Summit of the Americas conference in Miami. Guerrero served as executive producer of Al Dia con Maria Conchita, a daily talk/variety show hosted by Maria Conchita Alonso. During the same time, he produced and co-wrote the PBS special, Vikki Carr: Memories/Memorias that included a best-selling CD. An earlier bilingual Christmas special produced for Buena Vista International also created a best-selling Disney Records CD that hit #8 on the Billboard Top 50 Latin Albums chart. Navidad en las Americas aired internationally with Ricky Martin and Jose Feliciano among the guest performers. Major non-televised events include the 2002 Inaugural NCLR Alma Awards Gala, the 2003 Imagen Awards, the Artes de Mexico Opening Ceremonies on the steps of Los Angeles City Hall, and a Chicano et Tex-Mex concert at the Cite de la Musique in Paris, France. Guerrero produced and directed the spectacular AmericArtes Gala at the Kennedy Center to launch the multi-year AmericArtes Festival and the Maravilla concert gala to open the new Roy E. Disney Center for Performing Arts at the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He next directs the world premiere of Concierto Para Mendez for the Los Angeles Opera at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion based on the life of Mexican trumpet maestro Rafael Mendez.
