Dick Parsons is just a big teddybear

Published: Tuesday, November 06, 2007

-ZOE S.

TimeWarner Chairman Dick Parsons is not only laid back, cool mannered and always ready for war, it turns out the media exec has a playful side to him as well, as described by Fortune's Richard Siklos in a look back and forward. We bet Rupert Murdoch would never dress up as Homer Simpson!

Richard Parsons presided over Time Warner board meetings two weeks ago in London that included one memorable dinner in which, according to attendees, he appeared dressed in full Dumbledore regalia with the onscreen Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe, in tow. On he went to Delhi, where he strode, rajah-like, onto a vast stage at the city's historic Red Fort and opened the Fortune Global Forum before leading a side-trip of business leaders to Kolkata.
