**Nelson Eddy** is always in search of a good story. Nelson has paddled 450 miles on the Mississippi River; ridden the rails across Tennessee with the likes of Carl Perkins, Alex Hailey and then Tennessee Governor Lamar Alexander; swapped lies at the bar with members of the Hemingway and Faulkner families; and hung with the Beat writers in San Francisco. Nelson is also a great storyteller and will share the story of Jack Daniels Advertising at [**ADWKDC**](https://www.aafdc.org/adwkdc?ref=capitolcommunicator.com) on November 3 at Capital One Hall.

Today, Nelson serves as the historian for the [**Jack Daniel Distillery**](https://www.jackdaniels.com/en-us?ref=capitolcommunicator.com). He has represented Jack Daniel’s for 35 years and learned the history and lore surrounding the brand under the mentorship of Jack Daniel’s very first marketing director, Mr. Art Hancock. In 1988, Eddy helped introduce the first new whiskey from the Jack Daniel Distillery in more than a century – Gentleman Jack Tennessee Whiskey and has worked on the brand ever since. As part of his work for Jack Daniel’s, Nelson has crafted numerous brand communications for the internationally beloved whiskey brand, including a book, live show, countless videos and, most recently a documentary film.

As the Jack Daniel historian, he’s been interviewed by numerous publications, books, documentaries and television programs including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Atlantic Magazine, History Channel, National Geographic Channel and CNBC.

This is one of many sessions available at the combined conferences of [**ADWKDC**](https://www.aafdc.org/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com#!event-list), [**Mid-Atlantic Marketing Summit**](https://mamsummit.com/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com) and the [**PR Summit DC**](https://prsummitdc.com/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com) to be held at Capital One Hall on November 3, 2022.
