Dan Wieden Early life
Wieden, an Oregonian by birth, graduated from Portland’s Ulysses S. Grant High School in 1945. After completing his studies at the University of Oregon’s School of Journalism and Communication in 1967, he worked in public relations for a while before moving into the advertising field. Although Wieden’s father worked for Gerber Advertising, the younger Wieden didn’t find the profession to be a natural match until he began doing commercial freelancing and realised he had a talent for it.
David Kennedy and I began working on the Nike brand while at a tiny Portland advertising firm. At the time, the Nike brand was only starting to expand. Phil Knight, the creator of Nike, saw their brilliance and advised them to launch their own agency.

Goodby Silverstein tweeted,
If advertising could have holy people, Dan Wieden was certainly one of them. He spoke to those of us well beyond his own company, telling us it was critical to do things that had never been done before, and convincing us all that those things were already inside of us.
