The New York Stock Exchange looks decidedly more Madison Avenue this afternoon.

The American Advertising Federation announced its latest Hall of Fame inductees (its 70th group) at the closing bell ceremony—the latest class of leaders in the ad world who have made "significant contributions to the advertising industry" and a personal commitment to society.

Here's a look at this year's list:

- John J. Dooner, Jr., chairman emeritus and founding CEO, McCann Worldgroup

- Anne Finucane, vice chairman, Bank of America

- Michael E. Kassan, chairman & CEO, MediaLink

- Bill Koenigsberg, president, CEO & founder, Horizon Media

- Debra L. Lee, CEO emeritus, BET Networks

- Maurice Lévy, chairman of the Supervisory Board, Publicis Groupe

- Indra K. Nooyi, chairman, PepsiCo

- Hector J. Orci, founder & co-chairman, Orci.

Orci will also receive a David Bell Award for Industry Service, which the organization says recognizes "extraordinary and unique contributions and service" to the ad community.

The class is made up of "true trailblazers [who have made] a lasting impact on the advertising landscape, and their work will continue to empower others for decades to come," Carter Murray, FCB Worldwide CEO and AAF vice chairman, said in a statement.

The Hall of Fame ceremony will honor the group on April 30 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

For its client Smith & Wollensky, New York agency Walrus pulled a "light-hearted real estate takeover" on Del Frisco's—replacing 62 phone kiosk ads formerly held by Del Frisco's just as its media buys had come to an end.

"We both love and respect the folks at Del Frisco's, and our friendly cross-town rivalry," says Michael Stillman, president and founder of Smith & Wollensky parent company, Quality Branded. "We look forward to their response."

Expense suspense
Former WPP head Martin Sorrell's drama with his former holding company endures. The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that WPP contacted the executive late last year to seek repayment for what it said were personal expenses, like travel for his wife Cristiana Falcone Sorrell. The amounts total $219,000, WSJ says, and Sorrell paid the sum requested. According to the report, WPP recently asked Sorrell to clarify additional expenses.

Hand-scooped milkshake-up
CKE is conducting an agency review for Carl's Jr., a move that once again suggests Havas Chicago's approach really wasn't cutting it for the restaurant operator. CKE runs both Carl's Jr. and Hardee's, and had awarded both accounts to Havas Chicago in February 2018 as it aimed to differentiate the ad approaches for the two chains. By November, Havas had lost the Hardee's account to Havas-owned Arnold. Now, the Carl's Jr. account is up for review.

"As part of our strategy to separate Carl's Jr. and Hardee's, we are currently conducting an agency review for Carl's Jr. that is being managed by SRI," CKE said in a statement, referring to Select Resources International. "Arnold is the agency of record for Hardee's, and we are excited to continue our strong work together. Our goal is for each brand is to have its own unique storyline, both impossible to ignore."

Ads featuring Matthew McConaughey as the voice of Carl's Jr. began running in February, and were followed by a campaign with a new direction in November. While McConaughey's voice was still heard, Carl's Jr. poked fun at its bikini-babe past with comedian a Celeste Barber spot spoofing the 2005 Paris Hilton car washing commercial. Prior to picking Havas Chicago, CKE worked with 72andSunny.
The review was previously reported by Adweek.
