Read Atlantic Music Chairman Julie Greenwald’s Farewell Letter to Staff
Outgoing Atlantic Music Group chief Julie Greenwald, who has run the company for more than 20 years, has penned a farewell letter to her staff.
Since she joined the company in 2004 from Def Jam Records and Rush Management with longtime boss Lyor Cohen, she and longtime co-chair Craig Kallman have played an invaluable role in the success and often the rise of artists including but hardly limited to Cardi B, Brandi Carlile, Kelly Clarkson, Coldplay, Jack Harlow, Lil Uzi Vert, Lizzo, Charli XCX, Kehlani, Bruno Mars, Janelle Monáe, Panic! at the Disco, Charlie Puth, Ed Sheeran, Tiësto, Rob Thomas, Twenty One Pilots, and Wiz Khalifa, as well as award-winning projects like “ Barbie the Album” and the Original Broadway Cast Recordings of “ Hamilton” and “ Dear Evan Hansen.” Under Atlantic, the company’s subsidiary labels, including 300, ATCO, Big Beat, DTA, Elektra, Fueled By Ramen, Low Country Sound, Public Consumption, and Roadrunner, have thrived. But equally important has been the staff that came up under her wings — many of the company’s staffers were with her for many years or decades, and it’s a testament to the culture she and Kallman fostered that so many of them remained with her until her last official day, tomorrow.
