Regarding major edits and additions I've just made, the objectives were to clean up the rhetoric and to make the section on Advertising art director comparable in content and length to the article on Copywriting, since the two jobs are analogous. The unattributed tale about Bernbach and Krone is something I was told or read while working in the ad industry. Although my recollection is that the source was authoritative, I have no idea who or what it was, and the story is unlikely to be true absolutely, considering that Bernbach "invented" the modern industry's copy/art team approach. I'll defer to others' editorial judgment regarding leaving it in. Unless it makes the section too long, I suggest leaving it in for awhile and requesting citation.

Thank-you to Wanboon for adding an overall introduction. However, the "Role" section needs significant editing. The article regards more than the advertising profession, which is the sole context of Wanboon's paragraph (although many of the statements would also be true of the other fields). Some points are already made in the Advertising section. Flow can be improved. And some thoughts (e.g. the concluding observation regarding unimaginative clients) seem orphaned and overly judgmental. No time to make these fixes now. Anyone else care to give it a shot? Eplater (talk) 08:04, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Italic textThis article helped me with a paper. Unlike other Wikipedia articles, I doubt I would view for normal trivial purposes, which is normally what an online encyclopedia us used for.
