Adrian Lilly,
Communications Director
Adrian is a multi-talented writer and editor. He has written professionally for universities, museums, governmental agencies, corporations and the film industry. He has been published internationally and has interviewed individuals from senators to corporate heads to pop stars.
As a public relations professional, Adrian has secured millions of dollars in local, state, national and international media attention for clients. His strong writing ability, honest and direct approach to pitching and “can-do” attitude are a formidable combination.
In his 10 years in marketing and public relations, he has worked on many projects from inception to completion, including websites from design to launch, radio and television commercials from script to on-air, and buildings from groundbreaking to grand opening.
On the side, Adrian has directed two short films and co-directed a feature length independent sci-fi comedy, which earned him a reputation for making children cry and young women bruise themselves, but only for the good of the art. He enjoys writing screenplays, novels, poetry and short fiction. While living in Milwaukee for four years, he was president of the Wisconsin Screen Writers Forum, Milwaukee Chapter, and led workshops on screenwriting at film festivals.
Adrian also is dedicated to his community and volunteers his time to youth groups, historic preservation and environmental initiatives, the arts, and human rights organizations.
Adrian thinks like a magician. Acts like a windmill. And grows like a willow tree.
