ROBERT PRATT, dba HOME PAGE INK, is a seasoned writer and Creative Director with years of experience in proposal writing and design, scripting, media production, executive speech writing and organizing business conferences for a virtual roll-call of Fortune 500 companies.
Prior to establishing HOME PAGE INK in Las Vegas, Nevada, Bob was Creative Director of Busch Creative Services, a division of Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis, owner of Sea World and Busch Gardens. Additionally, Bob's corporate credentials include positions as Creative Director of Sorgel Studios in Milwaukee, and the inaugural Creative Director of the Meetings Division of the Carlson Marketing Group in Minneapolis. His work has been recognized by the International Association of Business Communicators, the Association for Multi-Image and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
Before computers became such an important fixture in our lives, Bob was co-owner and General Manager of Prattooth Productions, a multi-media production company in Los Angeles, where he pioneered many audio-visual techniques still being used today in the current incarnation of the Internet.
As a sidebar note, before his career in marketing communications, Bob was a professional actor in Hollywood, where he appeared in over 25 major motion pictures and television programs, including co-starring roles with Peter Fonda, Sally Field and Hal Holbrook. If you have a bad case of insomnia late some evening and feel like channel-surfing, you might be able to see some of his acting work on late-night TV.
In addition to the hundreds of business proposals he has created, Bob is also the author of three screenplays, two anthologies of poetry, a parable for children told from the point of view of the American Indian, a novel described as "environmental drama" and a non-fiction primer on the business of business meetings.
Bob also enjoys exercising his creativity with wood carving, website design and painting portraits of his friends and business associates as chickens crossing the road, each of which captures a specific moment in the lives of both the artist and the subject.
