Frank Anselmo’s creative work has been awarded by every prestigious, global award show. Anselmo may be the first creative to win coveted One Show Pencils wearing 4 different hats: as a Staff Creative, Freelance Creative, Creative Director, and as Founding Instructor of his own advertising program that's earned global status as "The Most Awarded Advertising Class In History" for the past 10 years. This year Frank's Unconventional Advertising program at SVA single-handedly set a new all-time One Show record by winning 11 One Show Pencils–over double any entire ad school has ever won.

Anselmo began his career at BBDO New York where he spent 10 years. While working with creative luminaries: Gerry Graf, Eric Silver & David Lubars, Frank's work contributed to the agency's most awarded decade to date (2000-2010). Anselmo is credited for winning BBDO's 1st One Show Gold Pencil in history for an unconventional media concept. For the past 6 years, Frank's been a gun-for-hire Creative Director at over 30 companies including most recently Apple headquarters in Cupertino. Anselmo’s strategies & ideas have led numerous agencies to winning new-business pitches.

Since the inception of Frank's Unconventional Advertising program in 2006, it has won more One Show Pencils, Clio Statues & ADC Cubes than any entire ad school in the world. In just its 2nd year, Anselmo's class produced the only Cannes Future Lions winning team from America and has since won the most ADC Cubes of any class at the school–leading SVA to winning the ADC School of The Year award in all 6 years of the award’s existence. For his teaching efforts, Frank was honored by Graphis with the very first Platinum Instructor Award.

Other career highlights include working on the last official John Lennon music video and having his work featured on Fast Company’s "100 Most Creative People In Business" issue.
