Graham's entrance into the advertising industry was slightly unconventional.

After applying for a job at CDP (then London's top creative hot shop), Graham was told they were looking for a candidate with more experience. Undeterred, Graham returned the following day dressed up as an old man. They gave him the job.

In his days at CDP, Graham created some of advertising's most memorable images including Benson & Hedges and Silk Cut Campaign. Following CDP, Graham went on to hone his skills as a Creative Director at WCRS, Saatchi & Saatchi and GGT.

In 1995, Graham began directing commercials and music videos at the Paul Weiland film company. In 1996, he became the youngest ever President of D&AD (Design and Art Directors Association). He was subsequently voted into D&AD's 'Art Direction book' representing the top 22 Art Directors of all time.

As a true Renaissance man, Graham's award winning photography has been used in many advertising campaigns including Sony PlayStation's 'Blood' and 'Mental Wealth' poster campaigns. He also directed a short film ( Z ) for the Millennium, commissioned by David Puttnam which was shortlisted at BAFTA.

In 2001, he created thefinktank-a conceptual production company. In 2005, Graham became Creative Director at M&C Saatchi.

Over the years, Graham has won countless awards for his work including: Gold Lions, D&AD Pencils, Gold British Television Arrows, Gold Campaign Press and Poster Awards, and various others.

In his ‘spare time’ Graham runs what some have called Britain's most radical art school.
