Antonio Edwin Moreno, is an American Actor, writer, and aspiring director. As an actor Moreno debuted on the Bio channel's Celebrity Ghost Stories in late 2011, and in 2015 he starred on Mysteries At the Museum as the famous Yankee's pitcher, Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez.
Moreno's roots in TV/Film began at a very early age. As a child Moreno loved watching television and wanted to become apart of the influential programs he watched throughout his childhood. And since the tender age of 6 years old when his mother bought him a 8mm camera, he knew his life's work would be destined for TV/Film. He first began his work in television as a high school student hosting his high school's morning news show "AM In the Dog House". During that time he also started his own video recording company Amateur Recordings where he filmed local weddings and special events. Later he graduated high school then attended Geneva College majoring in communications. He also attended both the Millville Aviation Academy and the Community College of Baltimore County, majoring in aviation while training for his private pilot's license.
Moreno is also a known humanitarian with past participation in many non-profit organizations including Youth 2 Youth, Teen Outreach Program, Peer Mediators, ASSIST, DELAY, AmeriCorp, and Public Ally's of Delaware. These groups traveled the U.S. promoting racial diversity and other humanitarian values. Moreno was also a guest speaker at a 1999 Male Advocacy Network conference held in Atlanta, GA on behalf of a program named DELAY which promoted delaying fatherhood for teenage inner-city youth. He was also a volunteer Fireman for his home town in South Jersey.
Moreno has recently been furthering his education for writing and directing as he pursues his directing career in television and film.
The script "Summertime Hustlers" is a drama following best friends who share common interest but are from completely different backgrounds. The story takes place in the same low income neighborhood where I grew up in South Jersey. It's a small city plagued in racism and crime. The story is based on my life, and the hard choices people from where I grew up had to make to survive.
This script requires a very small budget and can be filmed very quickly in a few locations in South Jersey or other similar town or city.
