Tommy Kane’s Summary

I have created print ads and television commercials for major corporations over the past 25 years. Sony, IBM, Samsung, BASF and Barnes & Noble to name a few. Steve Madden came to me 12 years ago as a three million dollar shoe company. I created one of the most memorable advertising campaigns of the last decade. Steve told me I was a major reason hIs company grew to 100 million in sales. A few years ago I did a campaign for Yellow Tail wines. It was the most successful launch of a wine brand in US history. I am currently creating campaigns for Samsung electronics.
