NEW YORK DDB today confirmed hiring BBDO New York executive creative director Eric Silver to replace Lee Garfinkel as chief creative officer of DDB’s New York office.
The hire comes a week after Adweek.com first reported that Silver was in advanced talks to become the top creative at the shop’s headquarters here.
Silver, 41, will start Feb. 17.
Garfinkel had been chairman and chief creative office since 2003. In a statement, DDB said only that Garfinkel is “leaving to pursue other creative opportunities.”
