Chris Beresford-Hill is an ECD at BBDO New York, with his partner Dan Lucey.
His Foot Locker campaign routinely influences pop culture. A spot featuring Mike Tyson returning Evander Holyfield's ear became an international news story. Another campaign, featuring Manny Pacquiao baiting Floyd Mayweather, is widely regarded as the reason the Fight of the Century happened. Another ad, with Tom Brady discussing "Deflategate" for the first time, earned 3 billion impressions in 36 hours.
His Guinness film, "Wheelchair Basketball", was one of TED's Ten Ads Worth Spreading, and received the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation's Visionary Leadership award.
His 2009 digital short in support of marriage equality, Devin & Glenn, landed on the front page of the Huffington Post, and TIME magazine named his 2007 Emerald Nuts spot, "Boogeyman", the best super bowl ad of the decade.
He has an awesome wife, Lyndsey, and a three-legged shelter dog named Rex.
