It didn’t take Gary Abramson long to abandon advertising. After an internship and two years of studying advertising art direction, he’s seen enough of the ad world to decide agency life is not for him. Instead, he’s chosen directing and screenwriting.
While he gets established, he pays his bills running a part-time graphic design business. In another era, this Miami native would be on the fast track at a prestigious ad shop. Abramson, 29, seems to have what it takes.
At the University of Florida, he majored in finance and economics with hopes of becoming an investment banker.
