Tom Sanchez was born in Lima, Peru. By the time he moved to the United States at age eight, Sanchez was already fixated on making movies. He jumpstarted his motion picture career by borrowing his Uncle's camcorder to make a prequel to Gremlins and a number of comedy skits with his neighborhood friends. Sanchez won the James Bridges Scholarship Award for directing while working on his MFA in film production at the University of Southern California. Tom has directed music videos including: "Irresistible" for reggae jazz artist Nigel Williams and "Liar in Texas" for Team Love Records' Cap Gun Coup, as well as several shorts. He is also a working television video editor. La Navaja de Don Juan is Sanchez's feature film directorial debut and is a winner of the 2012 Peruvian Ministry of Culture Post-Production Grant.
