David Finn (1921 - 2021) was a founding father of public relations and renowned photographer whose early influence in shaping the communications landscape ultimately helped lay the groundwork for authentic leadership, stakeholder capitalism and support for the arts by industry, cementing the role of Communications in the C-suite and elevating Ruder Finn’s position as a global communications leader.
As one of the world’s largest independent global communications and creative agencies, Ruder Finn has defined and redefined PR for more than 70 years, shaping communications that move industry-defining brands, companies and leaders from what’s now to what’s next.

Together we partner to redefine leadership, reimagine the marketplace, and rethink customer experiences around a shared sense of purpose.
