Lisa Guerrero was born on 9 April 1964 in Chicago, Illinois, the United States. According to her Wikipedia page, her mother’s name is Lucy Guerrero, and her father’s name is Walter Coles.

Lisa Guerrero’s Father

The exact page also claims that her father was an American of English descent, and her mother was from Chile. This effectively means that Lisa is of mixed ethnicity, English from her father’s side and Hispanic from her mother’s side.

Her family presumably moved from Chicago to San Diego, California, as it was there where she spent most of her childhood. She also spent a little time in Huntington Beach, California.

Early in her childhood, she had to lose her mother. Lisa was just eight years old when she lost her mother, Lucy, to lymphoma cancer. Her mother was 29 years old at the time.

To cope with the loss of her mother, her father decided to enroll her in theater therapy. Maybe this was where she gained interest in performative arts and honed her acting and performing skills in front of an audience.

As for her education, there is no official information about her academic qualifications and the college she attended.

However, one can assume that she might have gotten some education in the journalism field because she is an investigative journalist and has been for most of her professional career.

Lisa Guerrero’s Age, Height, & Body Measurements

Lisa Guerrero, going by her age, is 60 years old as of 2024. She was born under the sun-sign Aries.

The correspondent stands at the height of 5 feet 8 inches or 1.73 meters. That is presumably a decent height for a former cheerleader and model as she has appeared on the covers of various magazines, even the likes of Playboy.

Her body, too, must have helped her modeling career as she has an impressive figure of 36-29-35 inches, according to Celebsfacts.com.

Lisa Guerrero’s Career

Lisa’s career has taken her to different places. She started as a cheerleader, then got into acting, and then got into journalism and sportscasting, with a bit of modeling in between all those works.

Here, we delve a bit deeper into each of her different jobs at different points in time.

Cheerleading And Work As Entertainment Director

However, her talent made her able to jump from being a cheerleader to becoming an entertainment director. She worked as an Entertainment Director for the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots.

Acting Career

After working as an Entertainment Director for those two teams for a while, Lisa decided to try her hand at acting.

Then, she starred in Love Potion No. 9 (1992) and even had an appearance on the famous TV show Seinfeld, in 1994.

However, her most prominent acting job was yet to arrive. In 1998, she was cast as the voice for Francesca Vargas in the TV show Sunset Beach.

Although it was just a voice acting role and worked for just a year (from 1998 to 1999), she voiced Francesca for 127 episodes.

According to IMDb, she has 17 credits in the acting department, the last of which came in 2013 in the TV mini-series Revenge of the Goblins.

Lisa has worked as a producer, too. In 2007, she produced an independent film titled A Plumm Summer alongside her partner Scott Erikson.

Sportscasting Career

Even before she got her part in Sunset Beach, she had already moved on to sports anchoring. In 1997, Lisa started working as a sports anchor on Los Angeles’ KCBS-TV and later transferred to KTTV.

Then, in 1999, Fox Network hired her for another anchoring job. She worked on various shows such as Sports Geniuses, Fox Overtime, Fox Extra Innings, and the Toughman competition shows during her time there.

In addition to this, she also starred in the San Diego Chargers’ magazine-style television show. Lisa also co-hosted The Best Damn Sports Show Period for a single episode in 2001.

Lisa also got to travel to Egypt and engage in non-sports journalism. There, she took part in the taping of the special Opening the Tombs of the Golden Mummies.

On 15 July 2006, Lisa joined CBS to become a part of Inside Edition, a TV news magazine. She worked there first as a correspondent and later became the show’s Chief Investigative Correspondent.

Since joining Inside Edition, she has appeared in 102 episodes of the show, according to IMDb, with one more appearance on Inside Edition Weekend in 2019.

She has also been nominated for a Prism Award for her story on the dangers of alcoholism and boating and a Genesis Award for her investigation into horse slaughter farms in Florida.

Modeling Career

Lisa isn’t a professional model and never was during her career in the past. However, being THAT beautiful has some perks, one of them being that you don’t have to be a professional model or learn modeling to get on the cover of magazines.

In addition to this highlighting feature, she has appeared in a few other Playboy magazine editions and other magazines.
