Sherry Lansing Biography

Sherry Lansing, former CEO of Paramount Pictures and the first woman to lead a major film company, is an energizing and motivating presence on the lecture stage. She tells the tale of her incredible career as a businesswoman and philanthropist to attentive audiences, and speaks eloquently on the qualities of leadership, the joys of charitable giving, and the significance of achieving one's life objectives both personally and professionally. Sherry takes audiences behind the scenes of her meteoric rise from script reader for MGM (where she worked on Kramer vs. Kramer and The China Syndrome) to President of 20th Century Fox at the age of 35, and finally to her illustrious tenure at Paramount, where she oversaw the production of such landmark films as Forrest Gump, Fatal Attraction, Braveheart, Saving Private Ryan, and the highest-grossing film of all time, T. Her talks emphasize the significance of viewing barriers as challenges, as well as the values of perseverance, diligence, and dedication to one's profession. Sherry Lansing established The Sherry Lansing Foundation in 2005 to unite the many facets of her philanthropic endeavors, notably in the field of cancer research, after receiving multiple honors for her business and humanitarian work. Sherry is also a UC Regent and serves on the boards of The Carter Center, Teach for America, and The American Association for Cancer Research.
