Here are a few things happening around Ann Arbor this week!
Ken Segall at the Michigan Theater on 9/12
Ken was creative director at some of the world’s top ad agencies and over the course of three decades shaped campaigns for BMW, IBM, Intel, NeXT, and Apple. He worked directly with Steve Jobs for 12 years at both NeXT and Apple, led the creative team behind the Think different campaign that launched Apple’s resurrection, and he started Apple down the i-road by naming the iMac. Ken’s books Insanely Simple and Think Simple spell out the benefits of avoiding big company thinking and making complexity our enemy.
