Tom is the son of Shirley Burton, and Thomas David Ford, who both worked as real estate agents; he spent his childhood years in the suburbs of Houston and Austin, before moving with his family to Santa Fe, New Mexico when he was 11 years old. There, he went to St. Michael’s High School, and then transferred to Santa Fe Preparatory School, matriculating in 1979. Before he launched his career, Richard had short stints at Bard College, Simon’s Rock, and later studied art history at New York University, but after a year became focused on acting, first appearing in commercials and then in television series. However, he returned to school by entering the interior architecture course at The New School’s art and design college, Parsons – The New School for Design in New York City. During this time, he discovered his love for fashion, and spent his final year studying fashion, but still graduated with a degree in architecture.

Career Beginnings

His first job in the fashion industry was for Cathy Hardwick; he called her every day for a month hoping that he would land a job at her fashion house, and his persistence paid off when Cathy finally gave him a chance. He remained there for two years before moving to Perry Ellis, but then tired of American fashion, and wanted to leave the American fashion industry in order to evolve. His next stop was the struggling Gucci at the time, who had many financial problems and was looking to improve women’s ready-to-wear clothing lines in the industry. After two years, Tom became Design Director and then Creative Director of Gucci, and with him at the helm, Gucci quickly progressed and its financials were again in a solid state, to the point where they acquired Yves Saint Laurent in 1999, and Tom unified the positions of the companies.

Four years later he directed of the film “A Single Man”, based on the novel written by Christopher Isherwood, which earned an Academy Award nomination, and won over 30 other awards. Since then, Tom has also directed the romantic crime-drama film “Nocturnal Animals”, which also became a complete success.
