For four decades, Lee Clow has created and shepherded the kind of advertising ideas that move businesses and move us emotionally. He first garnered global attention with what is still considered the greatest Super Bowl commercial ever—Apple's 1984. Working closely with Steve Jobs, Lee Clow went on to create additional advertising for the launches of the iPod, iTunes, iPhone, and most recently, the iPad, and he coined the tag “Think Different.” Lee Clow was also instrumental in creating Nissan's "Enjoy the Ride" slogan, and was behind creative work for adidas, Nike, Reebok, Pedigree, and countless other multinational brands. Due to his bottomless well of creative ideas and his radical advertising philosophy, Lee Clow has become an icon within the advertising industry and one of its most visible spokesmen. Yet, this living legend has never assembled his wisdom, wit, and positions on advertising, business, and life in a single place—until now.
