U.S. PRESIDENT & HENRY KISSINGER - Martyn Naylor - Lance E. Lee Podcast - Episode #242
Martyn Naylor’s life trajectory is extraordinary and impactful, taking
on diverse roles as an economics and business professor, advertising
agent, and theater agent, rubbing shoulders with influential figures
such as General Douglas McArthur, Henry Kissinger, Imelda Marcos, and
nationally treasured kabuki actors in Japan. He studied at the London
School of Economics with other international students. He went on to
advise small businesses in the US, where his boss put his name down as a
candidate for the US Presidency in the 1960 elections. Martyn traveled
to 59 countries for marketing analysis and eventually settled in Japan,
where he began his advertising career with Leo Burnett. He later
established his company, Naylor Hara International, and successfully
introduced Dutch dairy products to Japan. Despite his success in
advertising, Martyn’s love for theater, a constant flame since the age
of 7, eventually took over. He was graced with the Most Excellent Order
of the British Empire for his honorable contributions. Martyn is
passionate about his life’s work, bringing British theater to Japan.
