GORDON SMITH

 

I was born in Lambeth, South East London.

 

Trained as an Art Director at Collett Dickenson Pearce in the late 60’s.

 

Moved to Boase Massimi Pollitt, while I was there I won BMP’s first
D&AD silver Award for Press advertising.

 

Went back to CDP, while I was there I won another D&AD Silver Pencil,
which meant BMP asked me back, where I won another D&AD Silver.

 

In 1980 I helped Dave Trott found Gold Greenless Trott, won lots of awards,
including a couple of D&AD Silvers.

 

GGT became a public company in the mid 80’s.

 

In the mid 90’s founded Walsh Trott Chick Smith, later CST

 

Sold the company in 2010 to Cagney PLC.

 

In 2011 CST joined up with the Gate, forming CST the Gate.
