At Lowe & Partners/SMS, a co-chairman steps down--er, make that 'onward and upward.'
Article Abstract:
Marvin Sloves is leaving his post as co-chairman at Lowe & Partners/SMS as of the end of 1998. After being a strong influence in the ad agency scene since the 1960s, he is going to leave his other co-chairman, Lee Garfinkel, in charge. Billings at the New York office of Lowe have gone from $300 million to $740 million in the four years of Sloves' chairmanship. He will have his influence now from the outside as counselor and advisor. Sloves started out in 1960 as an assistant research analyst reporting directly to Leo Burnett.
