Biography

Thomas Valle-Guatemala was born & raised in Hollywood, CA and its surrounding neighborhoods / suburbs. To many, he is simply known as The Madman, a mildly descriptive nickname he picked up back in 2000.

Besides being a Director, he is, by nature, a Composer & Musician, recording non-stop between productions and other projects. "Music has always been the first Love, and so, it does take up alot of my time, and eventually, finds its way into my film projects".

His musical personalities range from Lone Wolf Music (the Alternative Rock singer / songwriter, with a focus on the Human Spirit) to The Madman, which allows him to experiment on music, sounds & themes. His latest release is the nearly 3 hour musical adventure & instrumental album "Wild Desert Rose" and, on occasion, he can be seen performing acoustic sets around Los Angeles.

Before his filming hiatus in 2010, Thomas produced / wrote / directed "Chelsea's On Main" (a Blues / dance / performance art endeavor) and River's Crossing. He has also written & directed numerous music videos for various artists in English and Spanish.

Since 2016, Thomas has resumed directing, and composing his own films.
