Synopsis

Billy Finn, a young, idealistic, rising star describes working at an advertising agency as the most fun you can have with your clothes on and get paid for it. But when revered associates are chewed up and spit out, he asks, Could this happen to me? Then it does.He struggles with the conflict between his career aspirations and the obstacles of politics and events he cannot control. His career becomes a roller coaster ride of idyllic highs and devastating lows. He suffers a final betrayal after one of his greatest successes. Then he reinvents himself. But will he be vindicated and savor lasting happiness? Adman Cowboy begins in the 1970s shortly after when the story line in the television series Mad Men ended. It portrays the bi-polar environment of the advertising business that pulsates between the extremes of debilitating stress and politics juxtaposed against blissful, shameless self-indulgence.
