Stuart Elliott has spent more than three decades covering advertising, marketing and media. He is perhaps best known as the advertising columnist of The New York Times, a post he held from May 1991 to December 2014, writing the weekday advertising report in print as well as other news articles and features. He also wrote a weekly email newsletter for The Times, called In Advertising, along with other online articles, posts for the Media Decoder blog, radio reports (for WQXR-FM) and podcasts.
