Lisa Guerrero

Jennifer Hill McMillan, 2018 NFL Cheerleaders Alumni Reunion Host President

"Lisa was pivotal in the success of our 2018 Bi-annual National Football Cheerleaders Alumni Reunion. Lisa hosted the Grand Finale of this two day, three event extravaganzas with over 700 Alumni, guests and sponsors. She contributed to the creative direction and delivered an eloquent performance that made this event a night to remember. I highly recommend Lisa as she provides a touch of class and professionalism that is suitable for large scale or intimate events."

Robert Brennan, Media Relations and Communication Director of The Salvation Army of Southern California

"Lisa Guerrero is the consummate professional and a public speaker with a deep well of talent. Her participation in many Southern California Salvation Army events has garnered both a more extensive media footprint for the organization as well as a boost in fundraising. Over the years Lisa's skills and preparation and willingness to go that extra mile has helped us to raise over a half-million dollars."

Lea Woodford, CEO of SmartFem Media Group

"Lisa Guerrero has an uncanny ability to story tell and connect with her audience. Our clients loved her so much we had to bring her back for the SmartFem Summit. Her years in the media have enabled her to think on her feet and make a lasting impression."

George W. Bush, 43rd President of the United States of America

"Our Emcee tonight is the main reason I watch Monday Night Football. She's the sideline reporter and one of my favorite TV personalities. She's also a Latina whose mother was a Chilean immigrant. Let's welcome to the stage, Lisa Guerrero."

Karyn Nishimura Sneath, Director of Education at Society of Professional Journalists

"Lisa Guerrero has that rare ability to immediately engage and deeply connect with an audience! She was a keynote speaker for the Society of Professional Journalists’ annual convention and told stories of perseverance and professionalism in a male-dominated journalistic field. Lisa’s stories of strength resonated with our audience ranging from college students to retired journalists. She made people feel like she was speaking directly to them, not a large crowd. Her public speaking gifts were top notch and people clamored to buy her book immediately after the program, wanting a memento of the day. To top things off, she’s one of the most down-to-earth pros in the planning process. I’ve been doing this line of work for decades and Lisa hasn’t even a hint of entitlement. I’d book her again and again!"

Lisa Guerrero: Biography at a Glance

Award-winning journalist Lisa Guerrero is one of the most popular and hard-working personalities on television. As the chief investigative correspondent for Inside Edition, America’s top-rated syndicated newsmagazine show, she travels the country covering crimes, scams, cold cases and consumer reports. Her brand of tough, confrontational reporting has made her a fan favorite and she has won eight National Headliner Awards, five times for “Best Consumer Reporting,” twice for “Best Investigative Report” and once for “Best In Show” beating CNN’s Anderson Cooper among notable others. She’s been honored twice by The National Press Club for consumer reporting and animal abuse investigations.

Aside from the over 5 million viewers that tune into Inside Edition each night, in the past year, Guerrero’s investigations have racked up an additional 120 million views on YouTube. Guerrero joined Inside Edition in 2006 as the West Coast correspondent covering breaking news, human interest stories and the entertainment industry.

Guerrero‘s reports have helped solve dozens of crimes and put criminals behind bars, they’ve changed legislation and company policies across the country and helped to shine a light on human sex trafficking, child abuse and cold case murders. She has also revealed to the public hundreds of scam artists, dirty politicians, cheaters and crooks. Her investigations have been profiled in Newsweek, The New York Times and The Washington Post.

Most recently, Guerrero was honored with a Clarion Award by the Association for Women in Communications for an investigation that exposed a prosperous tax-exempt church for using a government PPP loan to buy a multi-million dollar jet. The investigation prompted the church to return the loan. 

She has previously won three other Clarion Awards for her interview with preacher Kenneth Copeland about his use of private jets, which went viral worldwide and was seen by over half a billion people; her report on adoption fraud; and her investigative series titled, “This House Is Watching You.”

Guerrero was also one of the first journalists to set foot on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island after his arrest on sex trafficking charges.

Guerrero is also a popular keynote speaker whose platform, “Being Brave,” motivates a wide range of audiences from corporate seminars to women’s organizations to youth groups, with the tools to unleash their inner courage by learning her “4 Steps To Being Brave.”

In 2019, Guerrero added singer-songwriter to her accolades, after she teamed up with Grammy-nominated country singer Keith Burns to co-write and record a military-themed song, “Everybody Loves A Comeback.” The collaboration was spawned by a 10-year-old $20 wager that Guerrero accepted to write a country song. In June 2019, the duo recorded the track with award-winning music producer James Stroud in Nashville. 

During her “off time” from Inside Edition, Guerrero has guest co-hosted “The View” and has been a special correspondent for “Dr. Phil” and “Dr. Oz,” and she is also a frequent guest panelist on CNN and HLN and guest hosts KABC Radio in Los Angeles with Dr. Drew and Jillian Barberie.

Before joining Inside Edition, Guerrero spent over a decade as a nationally recognized sports reporter on CBS, Fox, ABC and ESPN, having anchored and reported for dozens of shows including the wildly popular “The Best Damn Sports Show Period.” She has interviewed hundreds of athletes, including Alex Rodriguez, Kobe Bryant, Brett Favre and Mia Hamm. She was the first journalist (male or female) to ask Barry Bonds, on camera, if he’d taken steroids. She has broadcast from seven Super Bowls, five World Series and four NBA national championship games as well as the World Figure Skating championships. In 2003, She was the sideline reporter for ABC’s Monday Night Football and Al Michaels called the ratings increase that season “the Guerrero factor.”

Guerrero is an experienced actress with guest star appearances on “Southland,” “George Lopez” and “Frasier” and she was a series regular on Aaron Spelling’s “Sunset Beach.” She also played herself in the Academy Award-nominated film, “Moneyball.” In 2006 She served as Executive Producer on the feature film, “A Plumm Summer” (Paramount), starring Billy Baldwin and Henry Winkler. The film won numerous awards including the International Family Film Festival Top Applause Award and the Austin Film Festival’s Best Family Film.

Guerrero makes her home in Southern California when not on the road doing motivational speaking or chasing bad guys for Inside Edition.
