Badger Denehy spent high school in a tangle of RCA wires and VCR decks making skateboard videos that his mother once called “unwatchable.” After discovering the joys of non-linear editing, He graduated from The University of Texas at Austin and moved to NY for a job at CBS Sports - there he found himself once again surrounded by wires and tape decks. He went from cutting on Super Bowls, March Madnesses and US Opens to the theatrical trailer world in Los Angeles. He is currently a Creative Director at HBO, where he’s found a happy home leading a creative team he absolutely adores, “The Honey Fam.”
He has lead award-winning marketing campaigns for HBO (like The Last of Us, Westworld, Chernobyl, How to With John Wilson, The Rehearsal, Industry, A Black Lady Sketch Show, Gossip Girl, My Brilliant Friend and more), and was most recently nominated for an Emmy for his work on The Last of Us: Inside the Episodes.
When he is not wishing his body would still let him kick flip a skateboard - he is chasing his twin boys in different directions and trying to make his wife laugh.
Yes, Badger is his real name and yes, he was given that because he was raised by a pack of wild badgers.
