Congratulations to Professor Noreena Hertz, just appointed as a non-executive director of the Warner Music Group. Warner is owned by Ukrainian-born Len Blavatnik, who splits his time between New York and London.
Our Len was thanked in the preface to Noreena's 2001 work, The Silent Takeover, and she persuaded him to help with the Centre for International Business and Management based at the the Judge School, Cambridge University.

Len bought Warner in 2011. In 2012, Warner artiste Ed Sheeran played at daughter Laila Blavatnik's bat mitzvah at the Gotham Hall, New York. Len's personal musical taste, according to The New Yorker, extends to Leonard Cohen and Theodore Bikel.
