Did you know that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting reported a stock portfolio worth $178 million in 2023 and $106 million in savings/temporary cash investments?
$330 million in total assets at the end of the fiscal year, up from $262 million at the start! Wow! What a year!
That same year, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting reported paying $523,616 to CEO Patricia Harrison (@CPBpat).
Wow! Great Year for Patty!
Way to snag that $144,645 bonus!
@CPBpat The CFO also had a good year, $488,989 in total compensation paid out to William P Tayman, Jr.
With a mustache like that, who could deny this man a $100k bonus?! Well done, Bill!
@CPBpat Their chief counsel's name was Smithers? CPB's chief counsel was actually a Smithers?
Amazing. Well he's no longer with the company, but at least J. Westwood Smithers Jr. raked in $488,919 in total compensation before he departed.
And he also got that same $100k bonus!
@CPBpat Former COO Michael Levy also had a stellar year, taking home $471,102 in total compensation, with a nice fat $105k bonus!
He had to leave due to orthopedic surgery , but at least he'll have no problems paying his medical bills! Thanks Corporation for Public Broadcasting!
@CPBpat Teresa Safon took home $469,552 in total compensation for her role as Corporation for Public Broadcasting Chief of Staff, including the $105K bonus! Bravo!
@CPBpat Kathleen Merritt (@merrittkathy) kinda got stiffed on her bonus, only $29k to round out her $336,804 total compensation.
I guess the SVP of Radio Journalism just isn't as flashy of a gig at the CPB.
@CPBpat @merrittkathy Debra Sanchez, used to be SVP for educational content, but has since been promoted to EVP of government and external affairs.
She took home $334,471 as SVP with a $24k bonus, I'm betting the promotion gave her a nice bump!
