Eric Anderson Creative Director / Team leader
I started out at San Diego State University as a biology major, but after sitting in on a class at the LA Ad Center, finished with a passion for advertising and a one way ticket to New York.
I rose quickly at BBDO NY working with clients like GE, Pepsi, and Avis. Soon I was lured away to Ogilvy & Mather, where I worked on Seagram's, Bulgari jewelry and headed up the launch of Le Menu, which became the most successful new product launch in Swanson's history. I made one more stop in New York at Geers Gross to work on Nintendo, Frusen Gladje ice cream and Perrier before being recruited back west to BBDO in Los Angeles, where I took charge of Pioneer electronics, Blue Cross, E-TV and LA Gear.
It wasn't long, though, until I felt the pull of the East as Ogilvy & Mather NY lured me back with the chance to work with American Express, Duracell and Kodak. With an ability to understand what makes brands tick and solve problems quickly, I was elevated to the role of global troubleshooter and traveled to offices all over the world keeping brands on track.
Having come full circle, I'm back in Los Angeles to stay, with a passion for digital media and growing brands.
Life's given me much, so I now also sit on the board of miocean (a non-profit foundation), where I can give something back.
