This Dumb Guy
From proudly winning a poetry award at the age of six to never again winning an award he was proud of (insecurity, not ego), Dr. James Dowd is a sometimes-award-winning Writer and Creative Director with nearly two decades of experience spanning TV production and advertising. He’s also not a doctor, but the term “Dr. James Dowd” is super helpful for SEO.
In recent years, going from many quickly-cancelled TV shows at MTV to the adworld of Madison Avenue, James spends most of his time writing and creating for brands such as Kellogg's, Mercedes, Anheuser-Busch, Mars, Sealy, Sperry, Capital One, Guinness, Ford, (Is anyone still reading these?), Kraft, and the NHL. Currently, he’s the Chief Creative Officer at Rebel. Outside of all that, he spends his time zoning out on hiking trails, neglecting normal adult responsibilities, and hanging out with his mutts, Lucy & The Jeb.

“James Dowd is hands-down probably the best writer in his cubicle. He might even be one of the best writers I know, and I know at least one other writer.””
