Welcome to Litsy!

Starting in the fifties, when he landed his first job as a Chicago ad man, Bill Maloney has lived life in the fast lane. From the boardrooms to the bar rooms and from the dirt tracks to Daytona, Bill has moved between the worlds of advertising and motorsports, creating programs in the studios and racing on the speedways, sometimes even combining his two loves by producing television and radio programs about things automotive. Along the way he has hung out with comedians and corporate bigwigs, Admirals and auto racers. Jonathan Winters and Pat McCormick were his drinking buddies. George Schlatter ("Laugh In") and Jackie Cooper were his erstwhile business partners. Sometimes things went swimmingly. And sometimes, well, he was stood up by Dick Clark and swung at by Bill Martin. The celebrities and the scoundrels, they are all here in Bill's autobiography. Windy City Adman is Bill's story, an insider's view of advertising and auto racing, from the man who lived it. And still lives it. Now in his eighties, Bill produces a weekly automotive program that airs on NBC Sports Radio in Hawaii.
