Chuck Guest

Just out of high school, Chuck placed his yellow ledger pad on John Steinbeck’s grave, hoping for a transference. It didn’t happen. But that didn’t stop Chuck from writing.

Chuck’s career began at Hal Riney & Partners in San Francisco. He started on the account side, if only to justify his marketing degree from Santa Clara University. Creative was a better fit, and he went on to develop award-winning advertising and branding at Chiat\Day and Young & Rubicam, among other agencies. He’s served at least a hundred well-known brands, including Intel, Clorox, Gallo, MGM Grand, and Pep Boys. He particularly enjoys working on brands that deserve to be well-known but aren’t yet.
