Jerry Della Femina was an advertiser that was described as a street kid from Brooklyn. He and three associates opened up Della Femina, Travisano & Partners his first agency. His work in From Those Wonderful Folks Who Gave You Pearl Harbor TV’s and pushed him to celebrity like status. Dell Femina’s success was due in part by the fact that he was so driven, had a great sense of humor, and the love he had for advertising. Della Femina’s has such crazy stories from working in advertising where so compelling that they where the idea base behind the TV show Mad Men. Jerry lived a crazy lifestyle while in the industry in the 1960’s he would have three martinis at lunch which he considered to be a normal day this went along with the four packs of cigarettes that he smoked. Jerry is quoted in saying “I want to die at my desk,” (http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/145766a2-8fb1-11df-8df0-00144feab49a.html) and he does prove this with only sleeping three to four hours a night having many books , a restaurant, and still running his advertising company just to name a few things. He learned such a hard work ethic from his parents whom his father worked three jobs and his mother worked one Jerry wanted to get out of the hard times he had growing up and this drove him to advertising. Even though Jerry has a great work ethic he would not be the first guess in doing sell well getting out of the neighborhood since he had a learning disability. His ads pushed the envelope talking about Pearl Harbor and Hitler to sell TV’s and books. He has given the advertisement world great works in which we still reference today. 
As an expert in the fashion business I have always torn apart peoples outfits since the age of five. While attending a specialized high school with classes focusing on business I decided to make the switch from wanting to become a designer to go in to the business side of fashion. When I get my degree in fashion retail management I want to be buyer and go in to styling as well. I love to shop and I pick the clothes that a store will sell will be a great career. Being in fashion does not feel like work to me at all when it is a passion of yours so-called work is not work to me any more. The feeling and confidence when you put on a certain outfit is the feeling that I want to give people when they stop in to my store or when I style them. Clothing is one of the first things we look at and the thing that we can mold in to own personal style. Clothing is the outward way to show people some of our personal believes. Being in the fashion world is fast paste and ever changing and is one of the reasons why I love it the most. It is easy to changes things up and to make them your own
