Burnham Exits Bloom

After just three weeks on the job, executive creative director Pat Burnham has left Publicis/Bloom here to return to North Carolina.
Co-chairman Seth Werner, who hired the well-known former Fallon McElligott creative chief, said Burnham cited only personal reasons for his departure.
Burnham could not be reached to comment on his exit or his future. Two weeks ago, however, he dismissed rumors he was leaving the shop.
Werner denied that any clash emerged from mapping out their respective roles in the creative department.
“I know you guys always need to find an angle on these things, but that is not what’s happened here,” Werner told Adweek.
“I would say it was as amicable as possible,” added Werner.
