David Wallace (1908-1974) was a manager at Ford Motor Company, known for overseeing the product planning and naming of the Edsel car line, which debuted in 1957. Frustrated by conventional research methods, he enlisted poet Marianne Moore to suggest potential names. Wallace corresponded with her to convey the final choice of 'Edsel' despite it lacking the initial enthusiasm hoped for. His experiences with the Edsel were documented, highlighting the substantial financial investment in the car's launch, which ultimately did not yield the expected success.
