Source: Osborn Barr news release

Osborn Barr (O+B) strengthens its resources by adding three senior-level talents to its diverse talent pool.

Mark Wildenhaus, Group Creative Director
Wildenhaus has built a career proving that "ideas" isn't just in his name. He comes to Osborn Barr with more than 10 years of experience motivating and nurturing creative talent under his leadership. Wildenhaus oversees several of O+B's chemistry- and seed-focused accounts, including Monsanto Chemistry, Genuity, Asgrow, Dekalb and WestBred. His portfolio includes award-winning work for more than 30 notable brands in the retail, food, restaurant, automotive, healthcare and entertainment industries, including General Mills, Best Buy, Hardee's, Valvoline, Sara Lee, Wonder Bread and "Pork: The Other White Meat."

Rick Bayers, Director of Studio Services
Bayers joins Osborn Barr with a successful track record of providing strategic marketing, advertising, interactive and video production services to consumer, retail and business-to-business accounts. His new role within O+B is overseeing graphic designers, broadcast/content development, web programming and production design. Additionally, Bayers will continue to expand agency collateral service offerings. Prior to joining O+B, Bayers consulted for a variety of clients, including Tuvia Interactive, a custom Web development and interactive marketing company; Hair Saloon for Men; and LiveAnew, an online health and wellness company. Bayers also served as chief operating officer and vice president of client services for Jordan Group before serving as chief operating officer for Stealth Productions, a sister company of the Jordan Group specializing in video and technical production services.

Chris Toebben, Outreach Director
Toebben rejoins Osborn Barr as outreach director for Monsanto advocacy programs. He previously worked at Enterprise Holdings, where he served as a marketing supervisor. During his first tenure with O+B, Toebben worked primarily on the company's United Soybean Board business as a senior account executive, where he served as the lead public relations manager, executing public relations campaigns that earned unpaid media exposure through multiple communication channels, including print, online, radio, video, event promotions and presentations. Toebben also served as senior sales representative for the Missouri Lottery Commission and as a promotions team manager for Campbell's NFL Tackling Hunger Tour, a nationwide marketing campaign designed to generate donations of 6 million cans of soup to benefit food banks in 16 NFL markets.

"Mark, Rick and Chris are talented individuals with an energy and attitude that connect well with our team and our clients," says Michael Turley, CEO, Osborn Barr. "We're thrilled to have their leadership and guidance in our organization."
