Bob Iger is recognized among Jewish contributors to Economics & Business — Disney CEO who brought Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm and Fox into the house of Mickey and launched Disney+.
Born to an Austrian-Jewish family in New York, Bob Iger started as a TV weatherman, rose through ABC, and became CEO of Disney in 2005 with the studio adrift. His remedy was audacity: Pixar (2006), Marvel (2009), Lucasfilm (2012), 21st Century Fox (2019) — and Disney+ to carry it all into the world's living rooms. He returned as CEO in 2022; under his hand the mouse became the largest storytelling company in history.
