Imports For Mckinney, Crumbley

Two Southeast agencies moved to bolster their human resources last week as McKinney & Silver in Raleigh, N.C., recruited Janet Northen as senior vice president and director of communications, and Rich Wakefield was named creative director at Crumbley & Alba/MRA in Atlanta.
Northen comes from Fallon McElligott, Minneapolis, where she was the shop’s first director of communications from 1993 until the present. Prior to that stint, she held the same title at The Martin Agency from 1981 to 1989.
McKinney president and chief executive Don Maurer referred to Northen as “the best in the industry.”
