David Kellogg

Born: 1952

David first became interested in adverts and he soon emerged as one of the industry's most influential young ad directors.

He gained prominence for dozens of powerful television spots that he created for clients such as Pepsi, Fuji, Sprite, Coke, Nike, Apple, IBM, American Express, United Airlines, Kodak, Budweiser, and Mercedes Benz.

In 1991, he ventured into features with Cool as Ice starring rap star Vanilla Ice.

It wasn't until eight years later that he made his second directing fare, with Inspector Gadget, a live action version of the 1980s series starring Matthew Broderick.

He is married to Denise Michele Tom, the Hawaii island girl who went on to be a Playmate of the Month in Playboy back in April 1976. They have three children together.
