David Gross is a Canadian film producer who has served as a key member in the company No Trace Camping, and as president of David Gross Productions Inc., based in Ontario.
Gross is from Toronto,[1] and graduated from the American Film Institute in 2007.[2] With Jesse Shapira finding the book Goon: The True Story of an Unlikely Journey Into a Minor Hockey League and envisioning a film adaptation,[3] Shapira, Gross and No Trace Camping partners co-produced the 2011 film Goon.[4] David Gross Productions Inc. later co-produced The F Word (2013) and Room (2015).[5] Gross advocated for keeping the title The F Word for its Canadian release, although the Motion Picture Association of America found issues with it.[6]
With Room, Gross persuaded his Irish co-producers to shoot in Canada rather than the United States, saying they could have a longer schedule and more money in Canada.[7] He accepted the Canadian Screen Award for Best Motion Picture for Room in 2016.[8]
