The First Digital Copywriter
It's Joe McCambley, who is listed as copywriter on that very first 1994 banner for AT&T on HotWired.
According to his bio (pdf), "Joe conceived and developed the first advertising experience that ever appeared on the Internet in October of 1994. It was a banner that led to an online tour of the world’s best art museums, sponsored by AT&T and developed for the inaugural issue of HotWired Magazine."
Which also answers an old question -- what happened when people did click "right HERE".
