The first recipient is NBA All-Star, author, and
entrepreneur, Chris Paul. 

“The AAF Advertising Hall of Achievement is a shining example of why our industry’s future looks so bright,” said Steve Pacheco,
President & CEO, AAF. “It is the gold standard in recognizing industry talent who are making a notable impact to the advertising community.” 

Induction ceremonies will
take place on Thursday evening, November 16 at The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers in New York City.
