Disney is about to have its fourth board chair in just over three years, as the company continues to navigate ongoing tumult in the media industry. Arnold had served on Disney’s board for a decade and a half. Among the decisions Gorman will be tasked with: replacing Bob Iger as CEO. Parker, when he was announced, said replacing Iger would be among his top priorities. Gorman currently serves as the chair of Disney’s succession planning committee, which is responsible for the CEO search.
