Author's Corner with Kate Delaney

Defying Gravity is a funny and sometimes cynical peek behind the scenes of one of the world’s most influential businesses – Advertising. David Random takes us on a wild and wacky tour of the advertising world he lived and breathed for decades.

David’s remarkable story-telling ability and keen eye for detail bring to life this humorous and informative collection of short stories. Whether you’ve ever or never worked in advertising you’ll be hooked once you begin reading about a $600 roll of toilet paper, Twinkies and condoms, truth in advertising, a diet product called “Ayds,” and why his award-winning TV commercial was banned in Boston.
