Pregnant and directing a film...

I am a documentary filmmaker, journalist, writer and now, sort of, a technology artist. I am a former correspondent for Newsweek Magazine and i have written for the New York Times, Premiere Magazine, Texas Monthly, Time Magazine and others.  I have been on staff on a TV drama, penned two pilots for CBS and produced a movie of the week.  I also directed and produced four feature length documentary films exploring human rights issues which have been shown on national televison and screened in theatres, at festivals and special events in more than fifty cities around the globe.  The Los Angeles Times wrote, “de la Peña expertly personalizes the stories” of individuals whose rights have been violated.  My latest project, GONE GITMO, is a virtual representation of Guantanamo Bay prison which we hope to use as a space to teach about issues of habeas corpus.

I have a six year old named Opal and a four year old named Rafael.
