MUMBAI: The board of directors of the American Association of Advertising Agencies (AAAA or 4A's) has appointed former Lowe North American CEO Nancy Hill as president and CEO of the 4A's, reports Adweek.com.

Hill, 49, succeeds O Burtch Drake, becoming the ninth CEO in the association's 91-year history. Her appointment ends a search process that began last spring.

Drake, who has been 4A's CEO since 1994, said, "I am confident that Nancy's experience leading a variety of agencies in a complex and increasingly digital world will greatly benefit the evolving needs of 4A's members."

Prior to Lowe, Hill was an MD at Omnicom Group's BBDO in New York, where she managed the agency's Visa account. Earlier in her 28-year career, she held management roles at Hill, Holliday, Connors, Cosmopulos in San Francisco, Doner in Baltimore and the St Louis and Venice, CA, offices of TBWA\Chiat\Day.

"She's a great listener and has a ton of energy. She understands the constituents' needs," TBWA worldwide CEO Tom Carroll, a member of the selection committee, was quoted as saying.
