JWT's Ford Creative Chief to Split Time

NEW YORK Tom Cordner, worldwide creative director on JWT’s Ford Motor Co. account and co-president of the agency’s Detroit office, is now going to split his time between Detroit and Los Angeles for “family and personal reasons,” an agency representative said.

Since he will no longer work full-time in Detroit, Cordner will shed his co-president’s title, leaving George Rogers as the sole president of the office, the rep said. Cordner will continue to focus on Ford, both as wcd and creative chief of Detroit, the rep added.
