"At his core, Zack is most fascinated with a hero's journey and a redemptive story. What makes people do what they do? I think for him the most fascinating heroes are the ones that aren't necessarily just good—that they might live in a gray area. That you can still be a hero without being perfect."

Biography[]
At some point after graduating from Ithaca College in 1991, Deborah Johnson began working for Backer Spielvogel Bates in New York. It was while working for this advertising agency that she was put in charge of putting together a Reebok commercial for the 1996 Olympics, for which she hired Zack Snyder as director. He was married at the time and she was dating the art director for the commercial, but they worked notably well together. By 2002 Johnson's relationship had ended and she was working with a new agency, where she again hired Snyder to direct a commercial. This time they were both single and they began dating after completing the project.
The pair continued dating between Deborah's home in New York and Zack's in Pasadena until September of 2003 when Zack proposed with a ring inside a fortune cookie and asked Deborah to move to Pasadena with him as well as to become his business partner at Cruel & Unusual Films, Inc. A few months later she moved to Pasadena, and on September 25, 2004, they were married in Manhattan.[1] Deborah has continued producing alongside Zack ever since.
