Singer, a former CFO of Discovery Communications and ex-COO of ValueAct Capital, brings deep financial expertise and board experience with companies like Rolls-Royce, Motorola Solutions, Warby Parker, and Sweetgreen. Zaslav praised Singer’s track record in driving growth and innovation, while Singer expressed excitement about unlocking long-term value for Warner Bros.
