History
LPK's origins trace back to 1919, when Cliff Schaten started an art studio called C.H. Schaten Studios upon his return to Cincinnati after World War One. In 1959, seven of its employees purchased the company, renaming it Studio Art Associates. During the 1960s and 1970s, the company, which had been renamed Cato Johnson, opened offices in London, Brussels, Geneva, Paris, New York and Toronto. In 1975, Cato Johnson was acquired by advertising firm Young & Rubicam (Y&R), which continued to expand with locations in San Francisco, Hong Kong, São Paulo and Mexico City. In 1983, five Y&R employees--Mort Libby, Ray Perszyk, Jerry Kathman, Howard McIlvain and Jim Gabel--organized a leveraged buyout of the Cincinnati office and renamed the firm Libby, Perszyk, Kathman.[3]
