Doug Rucker – Writer, Director, Producer
The Founder and Creative Director of RUCKER & CO., a creative boutique that Rucker says, “has absolutely no allegiance to any specific channel of communication. We like to solve problems and place communications in new and unusual ways.” Clients include Cardinal Capital Partners, the premier national firm in the sale-leaseback financing industry; Essilor Laboratories of America, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of eyeglass lenses; Wizetrade, the country’s leading online investor education and software company; The Richardson Police Department; and Nicole Toomey, a Los Angeles-based women’s fashion brand.
Doug’s work has been recognized by the CLIO Awards, Communication Arts Annual, The One Show, The New York Art Directors' Club, Cannes Festivals, Luerzer’s Archive, ADWEEK Best Spots and many others.
Rucker led the small creative powerhouse, R&D Thinktank, from 2001 until 2007, where he created some of the country’s most lauded and awarded creative work in the healthcare industry for Medical City of Dallas. For 14 years prior to that, he honed his chops as one of the top Creative Group Heads at The Richards Group. Doug led some of the agency's largest accounts, including The Home Depot, Fruit of the Loom, Chick-fil-A, H-E-B Central Market, and many more.
Doug led the creative breakthrough for Chick-fil-A, the fastest-growing chain in the fast food segment, considered by many experts to be the toughest category in which to compete. Chick-fil-A's Cow campaign and its mantra, "Eat Mor Chikin", have become the envy of the entire industry.
Presently, Doug serves on the Advisory Board for Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. An avid collector of music, he has a growing collection of vintage Beatles memorabilia.
