CHICAGO Burrell Communications here has named Lewis Williams chief creative officer, replacing Steve Conner, according to the shop.

Williams was most recently a creative director at Publicis Groupe’s Leo Burnett in Chicago, where he worked on the Allstate, McDonald’s and the U.S. Army accounts, among others. The stint will be Williams’ second at Burrell, having worked there as an associate creative director in the 1980s.

“[Williams] is ideally suited to help us deliver the kind of creative—traditional and nontraditional that our clients tell us they want,” said Burrell co-chief executive officer McGhee Williams Osse.
