Kaplan Rises at Hill, Holliday

BOSTON Karen Kaplan, president of Hill, Holliday, Connors, Cosmopulos’ headquarters office here, today was named president of the agency’s national network, which includes operations in New York, Miami and Greenville, S.C.

“Karen is integral to the heart and soul of Hill, Holliday,” said Mike Sheehan, CEO at the Interpublic Group agency, who credited Kaplan with helping to guide the agency’s recent growth. Sheehan had held the title of network president.
