Benton & Bowles (B&B) was a New York–based advertising agency founded by William Benton and Chester Bowles in 1929. One of the oldest agencies in the United States, and frequently one of the 10 largest, it merged with D'Arcy-MacManus Masius to become D'Arcy Masius Benton & Bowles in 1985, and continued business until a reorganization in 2002.
