Today enjoy my conversation with Advertising Hall of Famer Linda Kaplan Thaler, author of “My Life in 30 Seconds.”  The book chronicles her iconic ad campaigns that are so much a part of American pop culture – the Aflac “Duck,”  the Toys ‘R’ Us jingle that most anyone can sing by heart, those sexy, edgy  shampoo commercials that sparked nationwide buzz and much more.  Linda shares stories of famous celebrity encounters in this rare memoir that proves life’s biggest lessons don’t take a lifetime.  They often take about thirty seconds!
