The Least Amount
of the Best People
At Rindal & Co, we build bespoke teams with precision—calling in elite external partners only when the mission demands it. These are world-class creatives, strategists, and specialists we trust to deliver with speed, focus, and impact. Every collaborator is chosen for their sharp thinking, deep expertise, and ability to execute at a high level. Here are just a few of the exceptional pros we’re proud to work with.
Dave O'Hare / Storyteller
Not a lot of advertising people can say their work is included among the New York Museum of Modern Art’s permanent collection. Nor can they claim authorship of two Campaign of the Decade acknowledgments by the One Club. In two consecutive decades. Fewer still can count these legends as mentors: Jay Chiat, Lee Clow, Jeff Goodby, Rich Silverstein and Hal Riney. But then, 40 years in the business, as one of its top writers—well, things happen.
And it’s precisely because of four decades of experience that Dave will tell you he’s seen, heard and solved for pretty much every marketing problem/opportunity there is. He’s launched companies, introduced products, created new categories, and repositioned many a struggling brand. More than once.
Curious by nature and relentlessly driven to create, Dave brings a considerable amount of insight, maturity and talent to the table.
Suzanne Finnamore / Writer
Suzanne Finnamore is a writer who loves what she does, be it being published by the New York Times, Knopf or creating copy for hang tags. Her advertising copy has peppered the pages of Adweek, Creative and Advertising Age. She works on anything you can imagine and some things you cannot imagine. Known for expertise in speaking not just to women but also to men, tweens, millennials, children and dogs, Time magazine named her Levi’s 501 “Prague” TV spot one of the Top Ten Commercials of the year.
As a staff copywriter for over fifteen years at San Francisco’s premier creative agencies, Suzanne has produced effective, brand-building Interactive work yes, but also traditional Print and Broadcast campaigns for Levi’s, Dockers, Kashi, Bank of America, The Hilton Family of Hotels, PBS, The Oakland Zoo, Perricone Cosmetics, The Ford Motor Company and the de Young museum.
​
A frequent journalist, Suzanne has been an Oprah Book Club Pick, a monthly columnist for Child Magazine, and has published three books, the last of which was excerpted in the New York Times. So not only can she create advertising, but she can write, should that be required. She divides her time between San Francisco California and Durham North Carolina.
Clark Morgan / Writer
Clark is a creative director, and writer with more than 20 years’ experience creating breakthrough campaigns for leading global brands. Clark has led creative at top traditional and digital agencies including Ogilvy, Huge, BBDO, AKQA and FCB. His work spans advertising, digital marketing, branding, and strategy. He also has the dirty habit of writing plays.
Deb Ayerst / Content Producer
The key to my way of thinking is that I love what is new and value what came before it. Through technological and aesthetic changes, this business of ours has really kept me on my toes, allowing for a very stimulating career that has fostered my keen interest in many forms of evolving media. It’s allowed me to be a connector, a collaborator, a touchstone, a knight, a questioner, a free thinker, an executive producer, art buyer and a friend, all rolled in to one for both the great talents I represent and the clients I develop a true admiration for.
Mitch Tobias / Photographer, Filmmaker, Musician
Mitch possesses a trifecta of talents, all of which play a significant role in what he brings to the creative table.
As a sought after advertising and editorial photographer, his eye seeks authenticity in even the smallest of details to make sure each element strikes just the right note in the telling of a bigger story, something he gleaned from his mentor, the legendary photographer Art Kane, while studying at Art Center College of Design. And evidenced in his recent work for Logitech, Allstate and Capital One.
When it comes to his role as both a filmmaker and cinematographer, working closely with clients to determine their core intentions is a critical first step. For Mitch, intent is what drives a good story forward and informs every shot, every line, every edit. His recent series for the Lodi Wine Commission is a perfect example—each story as unique as the people themselves.
Speaking of Lodi, it’s Mitch’s gift as a musician that helped bring those films to life. Not only did he compose each track, he played on each track. Just him. Every instrument.
