He received a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in 1991 from Carnegie Mellon.[1][2] While at CMU he was active as an actor, writer and director with Scotch'n'Soda,[3] the theatrical club for non-theater majors that also counts composer Stephen Schwartz, author Iris Rainer Dart and actor Frank Gorshin among its notable alumni. Grillo-Marxuach also wrote a weekly pop-culture column for the campus newspaper, The Tartan.[4]

He has a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) from the University of Southern California and from 2015 was sponsoring a fellowship there for MFA students who demonstrate an interest or facility with Hispanic language and culture.[5]

Career

Grillo-Marxuach joined the crew of Lost as a supervising producer and writer for the first season in 2004. He returned as a supervising producer and writer for the second season in 2005. The writing staff won the Writers Guild of America (WGA) Award for Best Dramatic Series at the February 2006 ceremony for their work on the first and second seasons.[6] The writing staff were nominated for the WGA Award for Best Dramatic Series again at the February 2007 ceremony for their work on the second and third seasons.[7]

In 2006, he left the Lost team,[8] and began working as a co-executive producer for Medium, as well as entering the world of comics with his own Viper Comics title, The Middleman.

He wrote Cops On the Edge: Episode 89 (2000).

In 2008, the ABC Family picked up his television series The Middleman, for which he is the writer and producer. The series was not picked up for a second season due to poor ratings.

In 2010, a pilot for Department Zero was moved to active production by ABC.[11] The pilot is based upon work by Jonathan Maberry. In 2014 & 2015, Grillo-Marxuach served as co-executive producer of the SyFy channel's series Helix.[12]
