About

          Lucas Brown Eyes is a Native American Tv writer from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. He’s from the Oglala Sioux tribe and he’s always believed he was going to make Television one day. In fact, his Indian name is “Wawo Yaca Wicasa” which means the story teller in Lakota. So destiny may be working a little on his side. I don’t know, I’m just a bio paragraph.

          Lucas was raised by his mother, grandmother and aunt along with two brothers and three cousins. They all lived in the same house because his mother always instilled in him that strong family values are the Lakota way. But he secretly suspected that it was because they were poor.

          But what his family lacked in savings they made up for in support. And in 2003 their support reached crazy levels when they moved to California so Lucas could study Film & Television at Orange County High School of the Arts. He became an award winning filmmaker and after graduating he would go on to USC and earn a B.A. in Cinema-Television Production. During this time, he started a production company shooting commercials, music videos and 3D content to help pay his way through college. But this was just a path that allowed him focus on his real passion, writing. And that paid off in 2014 when he got accepted into the ABC Disney Writing Program. Since then he has staffed on Disney’s KC Undercover and 5 seasons of Freeform’s Young & Hungry.
