TBWA\Chiat\Day Los Angeles promoted Stephen Butler to chief creative officer. Butler joined the agency in July 2013 and was promoted following the departure of John Norman in March 2014.

Butler worked with Bono and RED's partner brands, including Nike, American Express, Apple, Gap and Starbucks, to engage and drive the private sector into raising awareness and funds to help eliminate HIV/AIDS in Africa. Prior to Mother, Butler was creative director at Bartle Bogle Hegarty, where he led creative for Levi's across Europe.
