Template:Short description Template:Use mdy dates William Cole Esty (March 6, 1895 – January 1954) was an American advertising executive and founder of William Esty Co.[1]
After working at J. Walter Thompson starting in 1925, he started his own agency in 1932, with R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company as his first client.[2] His wife was performer and patron Alice Swanson Esty.
In 1982, William Esty & Co. was bought by Ted Bates Worldwide, which in turn was acquired by Saatchi & Saatchi in 1986. Two years later, Saatchi & Saatchi merged Esty with Campbell Mithun to become Campbell-Mithun-Esty. They have since dropped the Esty name.
