Adweek Co-founder Retires

W. Pendleton Tudor, chairman of the executive committee of Adweek Magazines, retired last week nearly 20 years after co-founding Adweek.
The longtime publishing executive said he was “going to do some different and exciting things I will continue to be involved in community-based educational and philanthropic institutions, serve as a magazine consultant and possibly start up a consumer-oriented magazine. I don’t plan to disappear from the scene.”
Western International Media’s chairman and chief executive officer, Dennis Holt, a longtime friend and colleague, described Tudor as “a morally straight human being whether or not you’ve worked with him in a business or social relationship, you always sense that wonderful, positive aura.
