WHY: 40-year vet of Angels Baseball LP, more than 20 as go-to communications VP. Now heads Big Show’s Big Hall in bucolic Cooperstown, N.Y., memorial home to Ruth and Williams, Gehrig and Koufax, Banks and Cobb and Mays.
RECENT: Involved in reopening of hall and museum after about three-month closure due to pandemic.
NOTABLE: Named to spot in 2019; he’s the seventh president in its eight decades, replacing Jeff Idelson, who led Hall 25 years.
