Lisa Guerrero      

Award-Winning Journalist, Actress & Author; Chief Investigative Correspondent for Inside Edition

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 news-magazine 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 over thirty-five national investigative journalism awards including eight National Headliner Awards, twice for "Best Consumer Reporting,” five times for “Best Investigative Report” and once for Best In Show. 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, Guerrero's investigations have racked up an additional 120 million views on the Inside Edition YouTube channel which currently has over 10 million subscribers. That doesn’t include her 2019 interview with the televangelist, Kenneth Copeland which was viewed by an astonishing half a billion people worldwide! Guerrero joined Inside Edition in 2006 as the West Coast correspondent covering breaking news, human interest stories, and the entertainment industry. She was promoted to chief investigative correspondent in 2010 and in her 16 years on the show, the ratings have consistently increased. After a move to prime access, ratings skyrocketed and in 2018, Inside Edition surpassed Entertainment Tonight in the national ratings, for the first time in the 30+ year history of the show.

Besides being a rating catalyst, 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.

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.” Her book on this subject (and a whole lot more) is entitled “Warrior: My Path To Being Brave” and will be released by Hachette Books on January 24th, 2023.

Most recently during her “off time” from Inside Edition, Guerrero was part of the A&E smash series, “Secrets Of Playboy” in which she hosted in-depth interviews with Sondra Theodore and Kristina and Karissa Shannon all of whom were in long-term relationships with Hugh Hefner. She has guest co-hosted The View and has been a special correspondent for Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz, she is also a frequent guest panelist on CNN and HLN and has guest hosted on 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. Guerrero 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, Guerrero was the sideline reporter for ABC’s Monday Night Football, and Al Michaels called the rating increase that season “the Guerrero factor.”

Guerrero is an experienced actress with guest star appearances on Southland, George Lopez, and Fraiser 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 Guerrero 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.
