For as long as he can remember, Cooper Koch has been a storyteller. Usually making people laugh, typically as the butt of most of his own jokes. Professionally, Cooper is also a storyteller. As the founder of PR Firm Cooper Smith Agency, he is trusted with developing and telling the stories of his clients. He is also the Founder and Publisher of He Said Dallas, an online source of things to do, see, buy, enjoy, etc. in Dallas…all from a witty gay perspective, and storyteller on his blog CoopedUp.com and his daily Facebook Live show (weekdays, 4:30 on Facebook). He previously contributed regularly to Huffington Post’s Queer Voices section.
In 2012, Cooper and his family were featured in a national Father's Day marketing campaign for JCPenney that triggered a boycott from the "Million Moms" and worldwide news coverage of the first-of-its-kind ad. It was the first ever mainstream American ad featuring a real life gay family.
