Life and career

Gray grew up in Rochester, NY and graduated cum laude from Syracuse University. He was an art director at Saatchi & Saatchi in New York City and worked on various packaged goods like Tide, Cascade, and General Mills cereals.

At BBDO, Gray was promoted to creative director on their Snickers account and co-created the award winning "Not going anywhere for a while?" campaign.[4] His work was honored as Campaign of the Year by AdWeek and Commercial of the Year by Advertising Age. In 1997, BBDO was named Agency of the Year at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity in large part due to the success of Gray's campaign.

In 1997, Gray joined Goodby, Silverstein & Partners as creative director on their E*Trade and Nike accounts, which also merited him numerous awards. Advertising Age named Goodby, Silverstein & Partners Agency of the Year in both 1999 and 2000, again in part due to Gray's work. His E*Trade "Monkey," "Monkey II," and "Wazoo" spots have been named some of the best Super Bowl ads of all-time.[5]

After his success as an art director, Gray returned to filmmaking and started directing commercials with Hungry Man in New York.[6] Shortly after his debut, he was nominated for the prestigious Commercial Director of the Year Award by the Directors Guild of America, which is bestowed on upon the industry's Top 5 directors each year.[7] From Hungry Man, he went onto direct with Station Film, and is now on SKUNK's roster in Los Angeles.[8]

David Gray currently resides in Rye, New York.
