Daniel Dominguez

Daniel Dominguez was born the son of cobbler in an unimpressive township about an hour from the city of Los Angeles called Palmdale. His father would often remark, bouncing young Daniel roughly on his knee, "You better not take any of my Gin, boy, because this is my gin," then he would smile his crooked smile and drink Gin out of a leather boot that he kept his gin in to "make his enemies nervous". Such was life in Palmdale. There, Daniel and the rest of the lower middle class serfs learned to wait outside the poorly maintained suburban Kentucky Fried Chicken for hours, in the hopes that the wealthy middle-middle class customers would toss out any fried skin or corn cobs they had not finished.  Determined to find a better life, Daniel traveled to Los Angeles where began his screenwriting career.  Now, Daniel is a NALIP screenwriting fellow, an associate member of the WGA, a semi-finalist in the Fade-In Screenwriting contest, has done a rewrite on a screenplay by the guy who wrote Find Me Guilty, has been selected to attend the Nickelodeon Fellowship Writer's Workshop, but still somehow has just enough money that he refers to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday as "Food Days".
