About
Ken Cosgrove is the Senior Vice President in Charge of Accounts at the Sterling Cooper advertising agency. He spends much of his time at work with Pete Campbell, Paul Kinsey, and Harry Crane. A bachelor who likes to flirt, Ken has written two unpublished novels and became the focus of office attention when his short story, "Tapping a Maple on a Cold Vermont Morning," was published in the Atlantic Monthly. Though he made frequent jokes about Peggy Olson’s weight gain during her unwitting pregnancy, he is supportive of her copywriting efforts and success. Indeed, the two have worked on a number of campaigns together, including one for Popsicle which Peggy was responsible for landing.
Ken lives in the Murray Hill area of New York City and continues to write in his off-hours.
