Eli Silberman spent 14 years at McCann-Erickson in New York, one of the world’s largest advertising agencies. While at McCann he created global advertising strategies and campaigns for Coca Cola, Buick, Exxon, Miller Beer and many other nationally and internationally known brands. He is author of the line, "If you've got the time, we've got the beer", which took Miller from the sixth largest brewery in America to number two, second only to Budweiser.

The firm he later founded, The Silberman Group, was in the top twenty of over 250 agencies in the Philadelphia area. His firm created the first true multi-media campaign for an HMO in America, for U.S. HealthCare.  Mr. Fey & Mr. Silberman worked closely together for many years in opening new markets for U.S. Health Care. The Silberman Group developed a national reputation in health care advertising and had HMO's and hospital systems as clients all over the country. In addition to health care the agency had clients in telecommunications, automotive, food, hospitality, and many other categories.

In 1998 Mr. Silberman, having won almost every award in advertising, sold the firm to Earle Palmer Brown and was Chairman of the Philadelphia region of this $700 million marketing company. 

Mr. Silberman sits on several boards including Downingtown National Bank, West Chester University, the Chester County Agricultural Conservation Easement Board and others. He has been a trustee of the Pennsylvania Hunt Cup, Upland Country Day School, served on the Outreach Committee of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. He is a graduate of SUNY Fredonia and served as an officer in the United States Marine Corps.
