Paul v. walters

I was born in the splendid city of Bath in the UK.

At a relatively young age, my parents dragged me to Africa – a continent I was once told “was not for sissies”. A Long sojourn under African skies followed where I gained a questionable education and great sun tan.

Advertising was always my passion and so spent my formative years as a budding copywriter at Grey International South Africa, before joining the advertising fraternity in London. A series of stints with , BBDO, Cato Johnson, Y&R and Ogilvy & Mather followed – loved Ogilvy’s work! Dispatched to the world’s most southern capital, Wellington, New Zealand. Here I teamed with Robert Anderson renowned Everest mountaineer. Together we built the Ogilvy & Mather Direct brand throughout Australasia.

All things must pass and eventually I started my own agency with David Meo, to form Logan Meo & Walters based in the land of the long white cloud.

We moved in the early 90′s to Australia to the rather unlikely location of the Gold Coast, Queensland and have been here ever since!! In 2008 LMW was acquired by a smart agency out of Melbourne and whom are aptly named Smart.I have two wonderful daughters, Hannah, who is in the film industry, based in Vancouver Canada and Hope, who is still enduring the final years of her university education.

I am married to Elisabeth who is a rather clever individual who’s ESL skills allow us to travel, a pastime I love.

I now write books and base myself in Bali for six months of each year.It’s a sexy job….however it’s yet to pay the rent.
