FROM ROCK STAR TO BIG TIME AD EXEC


[04/15/2007]
 

Happy Birthday, Dear Andrew, Happy Fiftieth to you!

Well, it was a success. A surprise party for our delightful leader and friend, Andrew Arntfield. About 30 staff members (current and former), clients and suppliers gathered at the Rivoli on April 11 to play pool, enjoy some food and raise a glass to Andrew.

Geoff Kendall created a special iMovie tribute to Andrew. Please take some time to view it - and be sure to listen closely. That's Andrew singing lead on The Beatles' "I've Got a Feeling" with the Lydia Taylor Band (live performance circa 1983).

Thanks to Patricia Kelly for providing the historical images, and to Sandy Zita for copywriting assistance. Thanks to Michelle Devan for help with party coordination and to everyone for attending!
