CP+B Appoints Replacement for Hopenwasser

By Kiran Aditham 

katecpbCrispin Porter + Bogusky didn’t have to look any further than from within to find someone to succeed Chad Hopenwasser, the eight-year agency vet and VP/director of video production who split for the HOP gig at Chiat NY last month. Taking over Hopenwasser’s role now is Kate Hildebrant, who has been with CP+B since 2009 and most recently served served as VP/executive integrated producer. During her time at CP+B, Hildebrant worked on campaigns for clients including  Jell-O, Fruit of the Loom, Microsoft, Kraft, American Express and Bolthouse Farms.

Prior to Crispin, the exec spent four years at DDB, producing efforts for McDonald’s, State Farm, Wrigley and Anheuser-Busch along the way. Early on in her career, Hildebrant spent several years as a producer at Fallon, serving as an assistant producer on BMW Films’ award-winning “The Hire” among other projects.
