MOST OFTEN ASKED

"I Am An American". We've all seen these poignant spots over the past month. These are our most often asked about. GSD&M in Texas was the agency which used a conglomerate of production companies and directors in 7 cities. The spot done for the Ad Council, obviously in response to the Sept. 11th attacks.
