About Me

Bio

Adam Guerino is a writer, producer, and standup comedian based in Los Angeles. He has been called a “comedian-producer-genius” by Chicago Reader and has written everything from the award winning short movie Boyfriends, to the indie comic book series Jooni Fringe, the twice staged multimedia play Mattress Matters, and the comic strip Braces. He is the creator of Outloud Chicago which installed queer entertainment in mainstream and historic Chicago venues for over five years including Zanies Comedy Club, Metro Chicago, and The Hideout. With each story, whether told from the stage or on the page, Guerino strives to create compelling, original works that are authentic, inclusive, and transformative.

In My Own Words

Oh, hey! I'm Adam, I'm a storyteller. That means my imagination deals in stories, not mediums. If I have a story, I try to think of the best way to tell it whether it's a standup comedy joke, a movie, an essay, or a comic book. As such, my resume is long and varied. My most recent project is writing a collection of short stories and essays tentatively called "How To Tell Jokes At An Orgy." You can check out chapters as they're released on my Patreon.
