Abstract

AMS has survived half a century. Originally envisioned by Harold W. Berkman, who survived nearly a full century, the association has grown in numbers and in prominence. While AMS is well-known for its two leading academic journals and for hosting well-attended annual conferences and the World Marketing Congress, relatively little has been written about AMS history. We contribute a brief history of AMS that emphasizes the organization’s missions and values. In particular, AMS, along with its publications and conferences, has been, is, and will continue to aim to represent, a bridge between the academic and practicing marketing community. Further, that bridge should be built upon quality, service, and integrity.
