History
The CEO and principal of Hornsby Brand Design LLC, Bridget Hornsby, studied at Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga., graduating with an advertising degree in 1986. After working as a business manager for a wholesale printing company in Atlanta, Ga., she worked as a corporate editor of two magazines for the international, musical instruments manufacturer, Peavey Electronics Corporation in Meridian, Miss. In 1993 she founded HornsbyWerks and moved it to Knoxville, Tenn., in 1995. The company changed its name to Hornsby Brand Design in 2003, when its president, Chris Hornsby, joined the company. Hornsby Brand Design acquired the LLC in April 2014.
Chris studied graphic design at the University of Georgia, in Athens. Upon his graduation in 1984 with a BFA, he worked for the Joan Carol Design and Exhibit Group in Atlanta as a designer where he designed exhibits for some of the largest companies in the world. After a two-year stint, he moved to Richard Douglas Advertising, also in Atlanta. His first projects as an art director included the Dale Carnegie Institute and the Salvation Army.
In 1990 he moved to Meridian, Miss., and became a lead art director with Peavey Electronics Corporation working with celebrity endorsers and more than 900 musical instrument products. His five-year association with Peavey Electronics landed Chris the creative supervisor position with Philips Electronics, headquartered in Knoxville. After a time with Philips, Chris worked as the creative director for several ad agencies and design groups in Knoxville before finally joining Hornsby Brand Design in 2003. He was inducted into American Advertising Federation Knoxville's Hall of Fame in 2013 for his creative excellence, his contribution to the industry, and his philanthropic endeavors to the community. Additionally, he is well known in the fine arts community as a member of the Arts & Culture Alliance of Greater Knoxville. His personal art pieces have been shown in a variety of art venues including New York City with recognition by the Whitney Museum of American Art's curator, Christiane Paul. In the spring of 2017, he procured his first solo exhibition at the Customs House Museum and Cultural Center in Clarksville, Tenn., sparking the Nashville Arts Magazine's feature article on Hornsby in its April 2017 Issue.
