Rose partnered with Alvin Chereskin to found AC&R in 1967, just a year before Bates acquired the company. Among the agency’s clients were Estee Lauder, Seiko and Foot Locker. He served as that agency’s CEO from 1972 through his retirement in 1991.
During his career, Rose also headed Bates International during the 1970s and ’80s.
