greatguns is making moves. Fresh off their multiple wins for London International Awards, greatguns has recently signed Paris Barclay for worldwide representation. Barclay is a 10-time DGA Award nominee and won in 1998 for Best Director of a Dramatic Series (NYPD Blue). He is the first director in the history of the DGA Awards to earn a comedy and a drama nomination in the same year--in '09 for Weeds and In Treatment, and again this year for Glee and In Treatment.
Currently, Barclay is executive producer and the principal director of HBO's In Treatment. Now in its third season, besides the two DGA nominations, In Treatment has garnered two Emmys, a Golden Globe, a Writers Guild of America (WGA) Award (for Best New Drama Series), the Peabody Award, two NAACP Image Award nominations, and the show was chosen by AFI as one of the 2008 Television Programs of the Year.
Barclay is no stranger to commercialmaking. Before directing, he began in advertising as a copywriter and eventually creative supervisor at agencies such as Grey, BBDO, and Mingo-Jones. Expect great things out of Paris with greatguns.
