This year, we are honored to present the eighth Lifetime Achievement Award to Don Florence, RAMA Board member & SVP Creative Director for Schawk Retail Marketing. Don has led the creative direction for in-house department stores as well as ad agencies (including his own agency) for the following companies: I Magnin, Bonwit Teller, Marshall Field’s, Barney’s, Bloomingdale’s, Macy’s, Speigel, Talbots, B Altman’s JCPenney, Revlon, Estee Lauder, Warner Bros, Fortunoff, Lands’ End, Brylane and Sears. His unique creative approach thrives on the healthy rub of the creative/merchant relationship. He always figures out how to make the merchants his partner and in the end produces better creative that sells. Don has led the creative direction for RAMA’s brochure’s for the last 6 years and remains an engaged and active board member. He is also a talented painter and has donated many of his paintings to charities we have sponsored here at RAC. Don’t miss the 3rd show of his work on Shelter Island this June. Congratulations Don from all of us at RAMA! 7 Executive VP, Chief Creative Officer — McCann Erickson New York and Chairman, Global Creative Collective — McCann Worldgroup http://www.rama-nrf.com
