All in the family – or not?

After dropping off the next generation of logo makers at school, it dawned on me she’s only the second person on both sides of the entire clan who chose to go into advertising and/or marketing. So logo-ites, are you the one and only in your family, or one of many who’ve pursued a career in the biz?

Are you trying to learn if there's a genetic influence pointing us towards advertising? Are we evolving as creatures into skilled advertisers as part of a new set of required survivor skills? Well, my Dad Unit went from journalism to PR but stopped before advertising, the next logical step in the sequence. My Son Unit I am certain will not follow in my footsteps.

I'm the first in my family to enter the ad jungle and, when the wee monkey arrives, I'm steering her towards a career in finance; after she starts landing the big fish on Wall Street, she's my retirement plan.
