    NEW YORK --

    Figliulo&Partners (F&P) has hired Scott Vitrone as partner and chief creative officer. Becoming F&P’s sixth partner, Vitrone will lead the agency’s creative vision and report directly to founding partner and CEO Mark Figliulo.

    During his career, Vitrone has held group and executive creative director positions in New York at Barton F. Graf 9000, TBWAChiatDay, Wieden + Kennedy and Y&R. Winner of an Emmy and other industry awards, Vitrone helped shape work for a wide range of clients, including Nike, ESPN, Delta Airlines, Heineken, Target, Virgin Atlantic, Land Rover, Miller Brewing Company, Sprint and FedEx.
     
    Career highlights include the celebrated “Whatever’s Comfortable” campaign for Southern Comfort at Wieden + Kennedy and “Experience the Rainbow” for Skittles at TBWAChiatDay, a campaign that is still running today. 

    Vitrone’s hiring follows the F&P’s launch of its new media and communications planning unit, led by former Wieden + Kennedy group media director, Ryan Haskins, and comes off the back of a series of new business wins for the agency.
     
    “I’ve always wanted to work with Scott and I am really pleased to welcome him as a partner at F&P,” said Figliulo. “It’s an exciting time for the agency right now. We placed a bet from day one on being the best home for talent, so with Scott’s reputation and caliber, he’ll fit right in.”
     
    Vitrone said, “I admire the spirit of generosity and transparency that Mark and the partners have created at F&P. It’s a young, independent agency that’s clearly going places. I’m excited to get cracking and help shape the agency’s future.”

    Director Mark Rydell, An Oscar Nominee For “On Golden Pond,” Dies At 97

    Friday, August 14, 2026

    Mark Rydell, the Oscar-nominated director of the sentimental blockbuster "On Golden Pond" who worked with such Hollywood heavyweights as Henry Fonda, Katharine Hepburn, Steve McQueen and John Wayne, has died. He was 97.

    His daughter, Amy Rydell, told The Hollywood Reporter that her father died Thursday of natural causes at a retirement community for the entertainment industry in the Woodland Hills section of Los Angeles.

    "Hard to put into words how much I loved my dad," she posted Friday on her Instagram account. "He was truly one of a kind. Funniest and most talented person I've ever known."

    "On Golden Pond" earned 10 Oscar nominations
    "On Golden Pond," which teamed Fonda with Hepburn and his daughter, Jane Fonda, was nominated for 10 Oscars. Henry Fonda and Hepburn won leading acting honors and the film won for screenplay, which Ernest Thompson adapted from his play of the same name. Rydell was nominated for directing but lost to Warren Beatty for "Reds."

    It earned over $119 million at the box office, making it the second-highest grossing film of 1981 behind "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

    "On Golden Pond" was Henry Fonda's final movie role. He starred as Norman Thayer, an emotionally brittle and distant father who becomes more accessible at the end of his life after his teenage grandson spends the summer with him and his wife, Ethel (played by Hepburn), at their cottage in New England. The film's story resembled Fonda's real-life relationship with daughter Jane, who said working on the movie together helped resolve some of their issues. The elder Fonda died at age 77 months after winning his only Oscar.

    Rydell's other Oscar-nominated films were "The Fox" in 1967, "The Reivers" with McQueen in 1969,... Read More
