ISBN 0-9548931-0-7 Erik Kessels is surprised by his honesty. Bob Levenson learnt the new way to write copy from him. George Lois called him a 'fucking kraut'. The creative Director of Chiat Day LA used to be his assistant. David Abbott wrote a book about his most famous campaign, for the VW Beetle. Yet Helmut Krone never became the Creative Director of William (Bill) Bernbach's DDB. Instead he remains 'the greatest art director' honored by Advertising Age and Adweek.



						“The first Art Directors Club was started in New York in 1921... solely for lowly art directors... to improve their status... After 40 years the NYADC saw fit to extend the credits in its annuals to copywriters. And shortly after, in a speech... writer [Bob] Levenson and art director Krone called for a new club: one which would promote the aims of the ‘creative team.' In 1975 they got one: The One Club for Art and Copy.
