Michael J. Gutierrez was born in England to a British mother and New Yorker father, so he said he was always raised to be a polite a**hole. Michael moved to Los Angeles and had barely learned how to tie his shoes (shoutout to the homie Mister Rogers) when his parents divorced. Michael’s father took him aside and bestowed upon the five-year-old the esteemed title of “Man of the House” and instructed him to look over his mother and sister. He took on that responsibility with no questions asked. After graduating film school at Cal State LA, Michael was a finalist in the Disney/ABC, NBC and Universal Animation writing fellowship programs. He was an inaugural fellow in the Circle of Confusion Writer Discovery program and wrote on seasons 1 and 2 of Netflix’s Fubar and seasons 2 and 3 of Amazon’s Reacher, respectively, where he was promoted from a Staff Writer to Story Editor.
