He then returned to N.Y.C. and worked on the agency side of the business for seven years with Young & Rubicam. Joe later held ad positions at Time, Inc., Philip Morris, and Heublein. From 1981 to 1983, Joe was the publisher of Vanity Fair. He then returned to advertising as the president of Corwyn & Donahue. In 1987, he founded Corr & Till.
