In 1981, he started Lowe Howard-Spink, which eventually became Lowe & Partners Worldwide. In 1979 Lowe arranged sponsorship of the Queen's Club Championships which became known as the Stella Artois tournament, an arrangement that lasted almost 30 years. He became founder and president. In the 2001 Queen's Birthday Honours Lowe was knighted for services to charity and advertising, allegedly less than a year after donating £2m to the country's first City Academy, Capital City Academy, in North West London. He quit his eponymous agency in 2003, becoming its chairman emeritus, after falling out with parent Interpublic who had acquired Lowe Worldwide in 1990. After fulfilling a two-year non-compete clause, Lowe founded the Red Brick Road integrated agency, taking its name from the route that Dorothy didn't follow in the ''Wizard of Oz''. He launched by poaching Tesco's £50m advertising account from Lowe Worldwide. Other clients include Gala Coral, Sky One, Heineken and Olympus. In 2008 Lowe married for the fifth time to sixties model Pat Booth.〔 She died of cancer in 2009, aged 66. ==Legacy== Frank Lowe is the only account manager to have won The President's Award from the Design and Art Directors Association of London. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frank Lowe (advertiser)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
