Jerry York has passed away after being hospitalized earlier in the week with a brain aneurysm. We crossed paths in 1995 when Kirk Kerkorian staged an audacious effort to control and remake Chrysler. Kerkorian couldn’t have done it without Jerry,  who brought guts, operational expertise and straight-talk to the table. Jerry did much, much more in his career, making indelible marks on corporations and corporate governance across industries — but most significantly within the auto industry. He is gone at age 71, which is too soon.
