JWT Hires New CDs

Director Richard Sabean and writer Jeff Watzman have joined J. Walter Thompson as group creative directors working on the agency’s $100 million Domino’s Pizza account. Both have been freelancing at the New York shop since last year.

Sabean, an art director who has directed commercials since 1993, is teaming with Watzman, who won Cannes Lions for writing Little Caesar’s “Italian Feast,” a gold winner in 1994, and co-writing HBO’s “Roach Motel,” a silver winner in 1998.
