Not sure where you are located or where your D might like to end up, but it is worth a call to an Addy award-winning ad agency (http://www.aaf.org/awards/addys_gold04.html) to see if your D can spend a day at the firm getting coffee and checking out the atmosphere.

From there, you might take the art director out to lunch with D and get advice about good schools.

Mind you, it’s all about talent and energy. And keep in mind that advertising is a young person’s game. Not many 40+ on the cutting edge. Also, it’s worth looking at how many female art directors got Addys. Go in with your eyes open sort of investigation…
