Dave Willis has worked on various Adult Swim shows that are created primarily by Williams Street, an animation-centered, Atlanta-based production division of Cartoon Network. He first got hired for Williams Street (then Ghost Planet Industries) as a writer for Cartoon Planet in 1995 and then as a writer for Space Ghost Coast to Coast (SGC2C for short) soon after. In early 2000 he also helped write and produce for the two Brak Presents the Brak Show Starring Brak specials.
It was working on SGC2C where he first met Matt Maiellaro, with whom Willis would later create many independant short films with and eventually create the popular Adult Swim cartoon Aqua Teen Hunger Force (ATHF for short). ATHF first premiered unannounced in the early hours of December 30, 2000 and later officially debuted on Adult Swim in the Fall of 2001. In 2005, he created the show Squidbillies, which is currently approaching its third season. His works mostly fall into the genre of surreal humor, and he is said to be inspired by animator Don Hertzfeldt[dubious ].
He graduated from Wake Forest University, North Carolina.
