We have received confirmation that Mark Taylor, who’s spent nearly four years at Crispin Porter + Bogusky and served as VP/executive creative director, has parted ways with the agency. During his third (!) stint at CP+B (he worked as an art director and ACD in past ones), Taylor led creative on a variety of efforts for various clients ranging from Applebee’s to Arby’s. Last year, he picked up a Grand Prix in the Promo & Activation category at Cannes for the AmEx “Small Business Saturday” effort.

From what we’re hearing on the Spy line, Taylor has left CP+B start up his own shop. Along with his multiple tours of duty at the MDC-owned, Boulder-based agency, the creative exec has also worked as an ECD and CD at GSD&M and Fallon, respectively.
