After graduating with a BA and MA from William Paterson University, Writer/Producer David G. Knappe was hired as a young producer for DuPont's External Affairs Division working with BBDO on Stainmaster and Teflon spots. He provided production support for the company's signature events such as the Tour DuPont for CBS Sports and LPGA coverage for ABC Sports. Knappe started his film company, Glencross Films while directing for many clients including BMW, Conoco Phillips, Morgan Stanley and Yahoo Finance. He also wrote, produced and directed a five part UK series featuring renowned "out of the box thinking" creator, Edward De Bono on Lateral Thinking. Knappe wrote and co-produced the launch of the IQVC e-shopping site for QVC and consulted for the AT&T "Net. working" and "website services" campaigns. 2006 was a banner year for Knappe, contributing several of the most closely watched cases for America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back (1988), most notably Cop killer Ralph "Bucky" Phillips and the case of the "Machete Monster". The latter story centered on a woman who was hacked nearly to death by her ex-husband. In twist worthy of a TV crime drama, the suspect was identified by none other than his former cell mate who saw the first segment in which the surviving mother described her ordeal. Viewers of the program were set back by would-be killer's casual answer "it is what it is", when Knappe asked him if he had anything to say to his family now that he was caught. In the end the family was safe and were able to move on with their lives.

Also in 2006, Knappe led an international production for Deutsche Bank as Executive Producer and Director for their on-line project "2006: Move to Alpha". He also conducted the interviews and directed beauty shots of the cities the firm has a presence; including London, Paris, Milan, Zurich, Luxembourg, Warsaw, Vienna, Madrid, Frankfurt and many other locations. He served as online editor as well. Next, Knappe executive produced the social networking site, grandparents. com for G2 Direct and Digital.
