About Amanda R. Martinez

Chief Creative Officer at Prometheus, an energy company that turns solar and wind into carbon neutral e-fuels, backed by Maersk, BMW, and Y Combinator. We make the only e-fuels that can compete with fossil fuels on price, and are the world's first e-fuels unicorn startup, valued at $1.5B. As Prometheus CCO, I'm head of brand and communications, responsible for creating the look, feel, and voice of Prometheus' identity. Recent achievements include: a 2022 Webby Awards nomination and 2021 Site of the Year awards from Awwwards and FWA, as Co-Creative Director of our website. I'm also an award-winning science journalist and playwright. Currently, I'm writing a nonfiction book, under contract with St. Martin's Press, that explores nostalgia and the incredible power the emotion has over how we see ourselves and the world around us. My reporting for the book has taken me to towns and cities throughout the UK, China, Germany, Hong Kong, and the U.S. My recent play "The Most Interesting Man in Dave's Mind," was a finalist in the 43rd Annual Samuel French Short Play competition and was produced at the Vineyard Theatre in New York City.

  • The Power Of Nostalgia - Forthcoming Book
    Author
    The Power Of Nostalgia - Forthcoming Book Aug 2018 - Present
    Under contract with St. Martin’s Press. A nonfiction book about nostalgia that examines what the emotion is, why we feel it, and how it shapes who we are and the cultures we belong to. The book explores nostalgia at the individual level, looking at how our nostalgic stories form the basis of our identity, and how they can both trap us in our past, preventing personal growth, or be an invaluable source of mental strength, pushing us to achieve amidst uncertainty. It also explores nostalgia at the scale of societies and nations, digging deep into nostalgia waves, both historical and recent, that have swept countries, including Germany, the U.S., and China. The book attempts to reveal what causes these nostalgia waves to form, how they cast such a fast and powerful spell over large populations, and why they seem so prevalent today.Reporting for the book has taken me to cities and towns across China, Germany, the U.K., Hong Kong, England, and the U.S.
