Bill Starkey
Creative Director, Red Tettemer + Partners
After graduating from the Visual Communications Group at the University of Delaware, Bill headed south to Baltimore for stay at TBC as an art director. A few years later, he trekked deeper into the land of pork Barbeque to Winston-Salem, NC for stays at Long Haymes Carr, then later Mullen. For his last few years in the south, he was a group creative director working on Sealy and Wachovia, along with everything else under the sun.
In 2007, the pull of the north was too great, and he took the gig as “Sr Creative Guy” at STICK and MOVE in Philadelphia. Bill joined Red Tettemer + Partners in 2010, when STICK and MOVE and Red Tettemer joined forces.
During his time in advertising, he has been lucky enough to work on brands like Thomasville Furniture, Hanes, The Baltimore Orioles, The Salvation Army, The Baltimore Ravens, Leatherman Tools, Yakima, vitaminwater, and Schwinn. His work has been featured in The Addes, The Art Directors Club, Communication Arts, The Type Directors Club, D&AD and Cannes.
Bill lives in South Philly with his wife Heidi, the most understanding wife on the planet, and Thurston Howell the Shih Tzu.
Sadly, Bill is of no relation to Ringo Starr.
