Walt Disney has elected a woman to chair its board for the first time in the entertainment giant's 98-year history.
Susan Arnold, who has been a Disney board member for 14 years, will succeed Bob Iger at the end of this year.
She was formerly an executive at global investment firm Carlyle.
Mr Iger, who stepped down as Disney's chief executive in 2020 after 15 years in the role, will leave the company by the end of this month.
Mr Iger's exit marks the end of an era for Disney, who has been in a senior role at the company since 1996.
