THE JUDGES

John Young , Partner /Chief Strategist, Full Contact
John is one of the true pioneers of integrated brands. He currently heads up Full Contact, a little agency that makes a huge impact for brands such as Disney, Calvin Klein, Zipcar and Au Bon Pain. Previously as founding partner and Chief Creative Officer of Tribal DDB Worldwide, John created a revolutionary agency network with 21 offices in 17 countries. Prior to creating Tribal DDB, John was Chief Creative Officer of Modem Media /Poppe Tyson. John has been honored by The International Advertising Festival at Cannes, The ANDY Awards, The Clio Awards, The New York Festivals, The Art Directors Club and Communication Arts Magazine. John also served as Chairman of the One Show Interactive and has judged tons of industry award shows around the world. He currently lives in the SOWA district of Boston in a sunny loft filled with musical instruments.

Mark St. Amant, VP Creative Director, Arnold Worldwide
When the New York Times wanted to add fantasy sports coverage in 2006, their first call was to Mark St. Amant. He is the author of two bestselling books: Committed: Confessions of a Fantasy Football Junkie and Just Kick It: Tales of an Underdog, Over-Age, Out-of-Place Semi-Pro Football Player. Most recently via his award-winning “Man-Crush Index” column for NBC Sports’ Rotoworld.com, he has long been a recognized voice of sports insight and humor, appearing on NPR's Only a Game with Bill Littlefield, ESPN, ESPN Classic, FOX Sports, and contributing to the Sunday New York Times, Salon.com and Boston Globe Magazine. But what in the name of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen does this have to do with being an Addy judge? Well, Mark's “day job” has always been in advertising—he’s going on 18 years in the business, the majority with Arnold Worldwide writing or overseeing all of the agency’s campaigns for ESPN Fantasy Football, Fantasy Baseball and ESPN360.com. His work has been recognized by everyone from the One Show, Clio and Cannes to the Kellys, Effies and Hatch. He lives in Boston's South End with his wife, daughter, and son/player to be named later.

Mary Rich, Art Director, Arnold Worldwide
Mary was lucky enough to be born to an Air Force family that relocated so often that change was viewed as a welcome adventure. This set her up nicely for a career in advertising. After college, she pursued an art direction job in Boston and was soon working at Mullen creating campaigns for LL. Bean, Nextel and Boeri helmets. She then joined Arnold to work as an art director on Titliest and had the good fortune of bringing the Boeri account with her.  Most recently, she helped create campaigns for ESPN and Tag. Her work has appeared in Communication Arts, The Kelly Awards, One show and Cannes. She also gives back by teaching a creative concepts course with the Ad council. On any given night, she can be found questing in World of War Craft’s realm Rexxar with my Night Elf Hunter laying waste to anything in my wake.

Peter Louison, VP/Lead Creative, Digitas
If you’re looking for creative that makes clients whistle, brands pop and gets your girlfriend in marketing promoted, this is the last son of a bitch you should call. His recklessly creative work has wrought havoc in virtually every business and industry from package goods to b-to-b; finance to health care and pharma; automotive to telcom to personal care products. Whether creating advertising for chemical companies with all the aplomb of a remorseless arms dealer, or gleefully hawking gas-guzzling SUVs on gm.com, he has cut a swath of chaos and destruction from Rumrill-Hoyt to Saatchi to Y&R to Digitas. Yet somehow, success has always eluded him. His closest brush with greatness consisted of handing Alex Bogusky a vomit bag on a bumpy final approach into LGA. At home, a closet full of awards dressed in tiny jackets, pantsuits and boots is testament to a man too mean to even buy his daughter a Barbie. Successive cosmetic surgeries have brought his features convincingly toward middle age, though a slight paunch is probably prosthetic. Run out of Rochester nearly a decade ago by a howling mob, he’s hoping this will be a rewarding judging experience and not another stunt to serve him a subpoena.

Christopher Churchill, Photographer
Christopher is a freelance photographer in the Boston area. His work has appeared in Glamour, Newsweek, Time, Fast Company, Oprah, Real Simple, Kiplinger’s and The New York Times Magazine. His commercial clients include MTV, The Federal Reserve Bank and The Massachusetts General Cancer Center. Christopher’s works are held in private and public collections including The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Addison Gallery of American Art; Boston Public Library; Fidelity Investments; The Portland Museum of Art; The Palm Springs Art Museum and Brown University. He is currently working on a monograph Traveling with Ghosts which explores different perspectives and manifestations of faith in America. He currently lives with his wife and daughter outside of Boston.
