Tim Weldon
Sometimes alums just vanish for a while, then magically reappear one day in my inbox. That's what happened to Tim Weldon. Says Tim ...
When I saw Gary Nelson on jayday.org, well, I knew it must have at long last become the hottest site on the web.
For those who want an update, I'm living in the Boston suburbs and working as a copywriter at a small agency on Newbury Street. My wife, Mari, and I have a 20-month-old daughter named Hope (photos attached from Xmas and Easter).
I miss life at C/D and have worked at five agencies since leaving in 1996. Just can't find anything that compares. And account executives often grow weary of me telling them "if we were at Chiat/Day this shit wouldn't be tolerated." (I leave out the fact that I was a Media Planner at C/D.)
That's all for now I guess. Gotta get back to churning out mediocre work.
Best to all.
-Tim

Tim Weldon- long time since I heard that name. I had heard that you made the transition to the side of advertising that actually makes money. Good for you. I finally went to the other side of the business- Sales. I work with Kerry Bianchi at Field & Stream Magazine in the marketing dept. I love it!
I also have two kids that I now am going to post on this site.

Tim- what a beautiful family. Best wishes.
Hi Mike G - glad to hear you've settled and are a happy dad too.
Quick update on me - Robb and I moved out to LA. I've been at a bunch of different Direct Response agencies and now I'm at Rubin Postaer (doing DR here). On the personal front Robb and I have boy/girl twins. They turned 4 on May 15. Being a parent is the best thing in the world.
