Don Draper may not have won a CLIO yet — but his creator Matt Weiner soon will, on May 12 in Las Vegas.
The CLIO Awards will present its first honorary statues to Weiner and singer/composer Barry Manilow at its 50th anniversary gathering at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino May 12-14 in Las Vegas.
Weiner will accept his statue during the Communications Awards on May 12, a 1960s-themed evening featuring Billboard pop hits, Rat Pack entertainment and ad imagery from the Mad Men era. Manilow will be honored at The Moving Image Awards on May 14, which is a tribute to the ’70s, the decade in which Manilow won two CLIOs for his work on Band Aid and Tab.
