Edward Coffey

The same instincts that drive creative work drive the communications work. With experience spanning the translation of complex scientific environmental information, civil works and engineering, national defense, and history, Edward takes complex, consequential information and makes it legible to the people it affects most.

Throughout his career, Edward has produced content reaching millions of viewers. From debris zones and emergency perimeters, to combat zones, and engagements with Cabinet officials, he ensures bottom-line messages reach a broader audience. The through line is storytelling under institutional constraints: bringing the human element to the message that makes a grant program, archaeological dig, U.S. military history, or a public health campaign worth anyone's attention.

A member of the Independent Writers Caucus (formerly WGAw IWC) and PRSA, Edward brings creativity to strategic messaging and develops engaging content that reaches millions.

The same communications instinct drives the creative work. As the founder, writer, artist, and publisher of Redwood Comics — an independent comic publishing company telling grounded stories in all genres — Edward has translated that experience onto the page. A Black List Recommended writer, he won Cinequest's Teleplay 30 screenplay competition and continues to develop original work across comics and screen. Edward also supports Veteran Comic Con, which hosts an annual convention in the San Francisco Bay Area to highlight veterans in the creative field.
