S Jorge Mena
Agent: Kristin Hardy 4445 Nathan Drive
Idaho Falls, Idaho, United States Email: jmmediator@aol.com Jorge started his award-winning career in broadcast journalism at age 15 in a local Washington, D.C. Spanish-language station, the since defunct WFAN-FM. Over the last 20 years, he has traveled much of the world as a foreign correspondent and freelance broadcast journalist. During that time he has also become a prolific writer of fiction and a much sought-after essayist, not to mention an insatiable poet. His works range from the existentionalist "Conversation with Fred," and "Penelope," to the heartfelt—autobiographical— "Growing Up American: Memoirs of a Generation Lost."
A much sought-after copyrwriter for his notable humorous spots, Jorge continues to quietly add to his already voluminous national and international credits in television and radio. Combining his talents as a writer with his vast experience in television and film production, he has also amassed a remarkable reel "reflective of a disturbed, albeit creative mind," as long-time associate and producer Oscar Underwood explains.
In August 2002, his new publisher, Willow Publishing, will release: "Recollections of the Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man," another superb novel from one of the world's best kept literary secrets.
