Alex D'Andrea began his career at the prestigious NYU Film School and moved on to production and development positions at companies such as Orion Pictures and at Epic Productions, where Irwin Yablans hand-picked D'Andrea as a story editor before moving him to acquisitions and production. D'Andrea was a manager and producer at Seven Summits Picture and Management. Whilst at Seven Summits, D'Andrea also developed a feature film with Vince Vaughn's company, Wild West Picture Show Productions.
At Edmonds Entertainment Group, D'Andrea doubled as a manager and as a producer on film and television projects for close to a decade. EEG has successfully created a reputation for innovation, creativity and excellence in a fast-paced, ever-changing industry setting up over 10 network television projects and over 30 film projects with major motion picture studios.
After Edmonds Entertainment, D'Andrea formed the production company Baldwin D'Andrea, a partnership between Alex D'Andrea and Stephen Baldwin. Baldwin D'Andrea had many projects in development with all of the Baldwin brothers, from action thrillers, to docu-dramas, and zany comedies. Also included was a Western film with Alec Baldwin to direct.

In addition to many TV and Film projects, Baldwin D'Andrea Productions began development on book deals with sports legends Michael Irvin and Michael "Sugar" Ray Richardson for their tell all autobiographies.
Most recently, D'Andrea started a company with managers from the UK and Toronto, in order to have a triangle management/production company.
