David Gilhooly, also known as David James Gilhooly III, is an American ceramicist and printmaker, born in Auburn, California in 1943. He graduated from the University of California, Davis with a BA in 1965 and an MA in 1967. Gilhooly, together with Robert Arneson, Peter Vandenberge, Chris Unterseher and Margaret Dodd, working together in TB-9 (temporary building 9) were what was later to be called, The Funk Ceramic Movement of the San Francisco Bay Area. David left TB-9 for one semester to become Manuel Neri's assistant and started making things out of lumber, fur, neon lights and asbestos shingles. In 1982, Gilhooly started exploring the media of Plexiglas, but still produced a multitude of ceramic pieces.
