What is your definition of an Art Director?

Director and Designer

Up until a month ago when I quit my job, to me it meant: One who oppresses and tells you what to do, remembering to take credit for anything you've done that people like.

I've been noticing the oppressing part a lot in the work force.

someone talented enough to be able to make your work better through critiques. someone who has to do all the bullshit client crap to keep it out of your hair so you can work. someone who give you credit for your work when do. at least taht's what it should be.
my last experience was more like mayo's. bad.

I've met more bad AD'S and CD's in my working life than I have met good ones.
The good ones are able to give advice and direction that helps you grow as a designer. They are able to see things in a way that you might not - and are able to help shape things in such a way that you learn through process instead of thinking - 'oh I like green - green will work here'
Well why will it work? Why choose green over brown on that page? Why use helvetica over another typeface?
A good AD can help you understand those things - and can bring cohesion to a team.
