Biografía y Trayectoria del Autor
Al Ries was born Alfred Paul Ries in Indianapolis on November 14, 1926, the son of a schoolteacher and a homemaker. After service as a merchant mariner and then in the Army in Korea shortly after World War II, he graduated from DePauw University in 1950 with a mathematics degree. He began his career in the advertising department of General Electric, then moved through New York agencies including Needham, Louis & Brorby and Marsteller. That combination of quantitative training and agency experience helped shape his lifelong belief that marketing was fundamentally a matter of strategy, not ornament. ((https://www.alries.com/nyt))
