Jeffrey Katzenberg (/ ˈ k æ t s ən ˌ b ɜːr ɡ /; born December 21, 1950) is an American media proprietor and film producer. He was the chairman of Walt Disney Studios from 1984 to 1994, a position in which he oversaw production and business operations for the company's feature films.
He was part of a team under Michael Eisner that revived Disney but always pushed himself to the front when it came to publicity. Then soon after Frank Wells (the 2nd in command) died in a plane crash, Katzenberg pushed himself forward to take the job - which was seen as bad taste.
Katzenberg was Michael Eisner's top aide in the 1990s, in charge of animation. He resurrected the studio's past glory with hits such as The Little Mermaid and The Lion King . He was the main protagonist in the original Disney-Pixar deal in 1993-94, and negotiated directly with Steve Jobs.
