Bobby Hershfield

Partner, Chief Creative Director at SS+K
New York, Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika

Zusammenfassung

Hershfield spent five years at New York office of Mother, rising to creative director in early 2011. His Target work includes last year’s “Little Marina” film and a New York event in 2010 that turned the windows of The Standard hotel into a stage for a musical dance and light show.
Before Mother, Hershfield spent two years at Ogilvy & Mather—where he was a senior copywriter on IBM and Yahoo—and nine years at Wieden + Kennedy. It was at Wieden that he crossed over to copywriter after spending his early career in account management. His first job was at the New York office of Chiat/Day, where his account duties included Reebok and Coca-Cola’s Fruitopia.
SS+K represents Hershfield’s first opportunity to run a creative department. He’ll oversee about 20 staffers and lead creative efforts on accounts such as Pfizer, Kraft and General Motors. The New York-based shop is backed by Creative Artists Agency and has offices in Washington, D.C. and Detroit.
