TBWACHIATDAY NEW YORK Chief Creative Officer CHRIS BERESFORD-HILL will serve as Chief Judge for the 2019 RADIO MERCURY AWARDS Competition. BERESFORD-HILL, a RADIO MERCURY AWARD winner himself, joined TBWACHIATDAY NEW YORK a year ago from sister OMNICOM agency BBDO and previously worked at SAATCHI & SAATCHI NEW YORK; GOODBY, SILVERSTEIN & PARTNERS; and MODERNISTA!
“The RADIO MERCURY AWARDS are near and dear to my heart," said BERESFORD-HILL. "It was the first creative award I won, and I’ve essentially ‘grown up’ with this show, and the leadership, and wonderful crew behind it. Radio needs our very best as creatives. Targeting? What’s better than radio? Creative freedom? It’s theater of the mind, where anything is possible. The audience can’t fast forward radio spots. So, make them great. I’m looking forward to finding this year’s best!” Added RADIO ADVERTISING BUREAU Pres./CEO and RADIO CREATIVE FUND Chair ERICA FARBER, “We are so fortunate to have CHRIS BERESFORD-HILL on board as our Chief Judge this year. He has been an integral part of our judging process over the years; we have watched his journey through the advertising industry expand, and his love for creative copywriting and radio has never wavered.”
