QUOTABLE

“We had four incredible top executives with Jimmy Pitaro and Alan Bergman, Dana [Walden] and Josh [D’Amaro]. Dana brings, obviously, the background, the experience from TV, from Hollywood, from overseeing the streaming businesses with Alan. They’ve both been incredible executives and… if you think about what is the heart of the Disney company, it’s the creativity. It’s this amazing IP that’s been produced over decades, going back to Walt, and the storytelling that comes from that creativity. I think Dana, working with Josh and ensuring that the best creativity permeates all of our businesses, is what we wanted.”

– Bob Iger on CNBC regarding Dana Walden’s appointment to Disney President & CCO
