  • Jerome B. York, commonly known as Jerry York, is an American businessman, and the Chairman, President and CEO of Harwinton Capital. He was the former CFO of IBM and Chrysler. He was also CEO of Micro Warehouse and joined the board of directors of Apple Inc. in 1997. He is a chief aide to Kirk Kerkorian and his Tracinda investment company. Most recently, Kerkorian helped elect York to the board of directors of General Motors, from which he resigned on October 6, 2006. In his resignation, he blasted the management of GM and the board of directors. York was also a focal point of a mid-1990's battle between Tracinda and Chrysler when Kerkorian attempted to get York appointed to the automaker's board of directors. The attempt failed when the Chairman Robert Eaton and President Robert Lutz refused to appoint York to the seat. Interestingly, Lutz is now the Vice-Chairman of General Motors. (en)
