Bill Kenyon, Political Director
A seasoned campaign veteran — gunslinger or political vagabond, whichever you choose — Bill Kenyon joined SPI after 25 years working in both political campaigns and corporate public affairs. He has worked in every section of the country for candidates seeking every office from City Hall to the White House. He hired Fred Davis to handle the media for SPI’s first presidential campaign, which he managed. Bill has more hands-on campaign experience than practically anyone in the country. A former award-winning reporter for The Dallas Morning News, Bill also spent five years heading AT&T’s contract political operations in California. A native Texan, Bill returned home 10 years ago and operates out of Austin. A first time father rather late in life, Bill is now enjoying the golden window of getting both a senior and child discount at area movie theaters.
Amy Singletary, Business Manager
Raised on a farm in Hillsboro, Oregon, at 25 Amy Singletary relocated to Los Angeles to work for the founder of B.U.M. Equipment. She met Fred Davis when his firm took over marketing for the apparel giant and he chose her to head the ad department. After B.U.M. she worked as liaison for 26 network affiliates at Fox Sports, creative director for Billboard Entertainment, handled public appearances for some of the NHL’s top athletes, and as marketing director for All Star Hockey & Sports. The restless woman finally landed back with Fred at SPI in 1998 and we won’t let her leave. She runs company operations and is involved in the creative “unusual thoughts” process that has led to the successes of SPI’s political and corporate friends. As long as client bills are paid up, a call from Amy is a joy to behold. She’s married to one of Fred’s life-long best friends.
Christine Burroughs, Office Manager
Which is more thrilling, working for the world’s top politicians, or working for one the world’s top former mob bosses? And the difference would be . . . ? Born and raised in Southern California, she began her career as an administrative assistant at Billboard Entertainment Marketing. From there she joined the mob, eight years as executive assistant to Michael Franzese, former caporegime in the Colombo crime family. Franzese, after serving 10 years behind bars, had several businesses, including the production of a major pay-per-view concert, written and directed by . . . Fred Davis. So, Fred made Chrissy an offer she really couldn’t refuse and she left one mob for ours. Chrissy and her husband, Chris, have two grown daughters, Yvonne and Alisa, and are the proud grandparents of grandsons Travis Christopher and Andre Manuel. Chrissy is armed 24/7 with her 145 lbs. Bullmastiff, Sancho, so she no longer needs to live in the Witness Protection Program.
Dianne Severson, Producer
Okie born, Cajun raised and Texas baked, she’s come full circle back to Tulsa. Dianne Severson has worked 25 years as a gun for hire. North to south and coast-to-coast, producing television ads of every size and scope imaginable: Kodak, Nike, Budweiser, Mobil Oil, U.S. Navy, McDonald’s and Volkswagen to name a few. BUT, she’d never experienced anything like a political season at SPI, skydiving and raising teenagers couldn’t compare to the adrenaline rush of politics. First helping us with John McCain’s presidential in 2008, back for more in 2010, she finally bit hard on the hook in 2015 and is here to stay.
Pam Wild, Post-Production Manager
Pam started out answering 911 calls and dispatching police officers. Fitting experience for politics, no? She broke into the biz working live news at a Tulsa NBC affiliate, then post-production and live sports at Winnercomm. Then, a move to advertising, first at a Tulsa casino, then joined the renowned Walsh Branding team – all the while teaching Jazzercise. After managing a five-person design team for a leading wholesaler of industrial and welding products, she came back to her production roots at SPI bringing her experience full circle. The difference between hysterical 911 calls in the middle of the night, and hysterical campaign calls in the middle of the night? Very little difference indeed!
