Jordan, James J., Jr.
▪ 2005

      American advertiser (b. Aug. 3, 1930, Germantown, Pa.—d. Feb. 4, 2004, Virgin Islands), wrote popular advertising slogans that became indelibly identified with the services or products for which they were created, such as Delta Airlines (“Delta is ready when you are”); Wisk laundry detergent (“Ring around the collar”); Quaker oatmeal (“It's the right thing to do”); Schaefer beer (“Schaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one”); and Tareyton cigarettes (“Us Tareyton smokers would rather fight than switch”). He worked at various New York City ad agencies from the 1950s and came to head his own agency in 1978.
