The CREATIVE CIRCUS to Host “What Women Want and How They Got It: A Forum of Advertising’s Top Women”

The CREATIVE CIRCUS will be hosting “What Women Want and How They Got It: A Forum of Advertising’s Top Women”. This forum will feature five of the world’s most significant contributors in the advertising industry. These women are responsible for some of the most iconic advertising work in the last 20, but these ladies didn’t start at the top. They each have a unique story of how they broke into the industry and, more importantly, how they broke through with their first big project.

All you've heard about the crazy world of advertising doesn't come even close to the experiences of these women. The forum moderator, author Phil Growick, knows this first hand, and he has compiled the stories of the aforementioned women and others from the advertising industry in his newly-released book My First Time (MX Publishing, September 2012). Featuring interviews with many of the advertising industry's top creatives, the book offers their stories, in their own words, about their first taste of success in the advertising industry.
