Audrey Beth Davis, the retired entertainment publicist who worked with The Lippin Group, has died. She was 82.
Davis died Friday in Pennsylvania from natural causes, where she was surrounded by her family, friends and caregivers, The Lippin Group announced.
She was born in Brooklyn, New York, on Oct. 17, 1943, and graduated from Midwood High School in 1960. Before delving into her public relations career, Davis worked for Goodson Todman on The Match Game.
In the late ’70s, she joined Stone Associates and partner Dick Lippin brought her on to his new company, Lippin & Grant. Davis continued with the company through its shift to The Lippin Group in 1986, and remained with Lippin until 2008, when she retired as an executive vice president.
