Palmer and managing partner Jim Wilkinson will oversee the new outpost. Wikinson is a former Congressional aide to ex-House Majority Leader Dick Armey of Texas and held several high-ranking PR posts during the recent Bush administration.
Palmer was a top PR exec at Enron before and after its dramatic fall into bankruptcy in 2001. He joins Brunswick from Houston-based food services giant Sysco, where he was VP of corporate communications. He joined the company in 2006 from a managing director’s post at Public Strategies, the Texas-based public affairs powerhouse that recently merged with Hill & Knowlton.
Brunswick said Dallas is its 17th office globally.
