Arnold's Baglivo Heads to Saatchi as N.Y. CEO

NEW YORK Mary Baglivo, president of the New York office of Havas’ Arnold since 2002, is leaving to become CEO of the crosstown office of Publicis Groupe’s Saatchi & Saatchi, a Saatchi representative confirmed.

At the same time, Saatchi is replacing New York creative chief Tod Seisser with Tony Granger, executive creative director of Saatchi’s London office. Seisser, who joined Saatchi in 1998, is leaving the agency.

Fran Kelly, president of Boston-based Arnold’s U.S. operations, said he will take over the New York office presidency from Baglivo for at least the next six to 12 months while deciding if a successor will be named.
