Edgar Bronfman, Jr.

Chairman
Warner Music Group (WMG)

Bronfman has guided WMG's transition from a traditional recorded music and music publishing company to a more diverse music content concern, one that is now a broad-based company with interests in recorded music, music publishing and artist services. Bronfman led a private investment group in its acquisition of WMG from Time Warner for $2.6 billion and, as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, led the company's initial public offering and its daily operations. He then presided over the sale of WMG to Access Industries for $3.3 billion. When he isn’t overseeing what Fast Company called, in 2009, one of "The World's 50 Most Innovative Companies," Bronfman serves on several health-related and international business boards.
