Bruce Rosenblum
Director
City National Corporation
President
Warner Bros. Television Group
Regarded as one of today’s most innovative television business executives, Bruce Rosenblum has headed the Warner Bros. Television Group (WBTVG) since 1999, and currently serves as its president with oversight of and a broad mandate to grow Warner Bros.’ entire portfolio of television businesses, including worldwide production, distribution and broadcasting.
Under Mr. Rosenblum’s guidance, WBTVG is rapidly developing new business models for the evolving television landscape, including video-on-demand, broadband, wireless and home video exploitation of its vast library. WBTVG has digital distribution agreements in place with ABC, CBS and NBC (representing an industry first for a major studio with unaffiliated networks), and in September 2006 formed Studio 2.0, a new advertiser-aligned, digital production venture.
Mr. Rosenblum also oversees the studio’s broadcasting interests. He was a driving force behind the creation and launch of both The WB (1995) and The CW Television Network, launched (in partnership with CBS) in September 2006 with quality, diverse programming targeted to the 18-34 audience.
Prior to his current post, Mr. Rosenblum served as executive vice president of television at the studio for six years. He came to Warner Bros. as part of Warner Communications’ 1989 acquisition of Lorimar Telepictures as vice president, business affairs. He joined Lorimar in 1986 from Dern, Mason & Floum (now Del, Shaw, Moonves, Tanaka & Finkelstein), where he began his career as an entertainment attorney in 1982.
He holds a juris doctor degree from the University of California, Los Angeles and a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Southern California.
