Tim McCray joined the Mercer-Zimmerman family in 2003, bringing with him 20+ years of lighting experience. He originally began his lighting career with Coopersmith Lighting Agency, Inc. in 1985 after receiving a BSE in Theatre and Math from Central Missouri State University. When Mercer Zimmerman merged with Coopersmith Lighting, McCray continued to specialize in Theatrical Dimming and Control layouts. He especially enjoys working with architects, engineers and theatrical dealers on the design of architectural and theatrical dimming and control systems.

During his spare time (or what spare time he has), McCray is very active at Visitation Catholic Church, where he serves as a youth minister and as artistic director for Theatre at Vis, a community-based theatre company at the church. He also enjoys running, woodworking, golf, and cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs.

McCray has been married to wife Sandie for 16 years; he has seven children and nine grandchildren. (OK, its really six stepchildren and grandchildren and his son, Adam, but he considers them all his children.)
