After his education at Fulton Avenue School, he attended the Roy H. Park School of Communications, Ithaca College in New York, and graduated with a BA degree in TV and Radio Communications.

However, his career didn`t stop there, as only five years later, it was announced that Bob would succeed as chief executive officer.

While serving as Disney`s CEO, Bob`s net worth increased considerably, as in 2009 alone he received $29 million in total salary, and by 2015, that had increased to $46.5 million.

Iger is responsible for Disney`s successful business ventures, which include acquiring of Pixar, for $7.4 billion in 2006, and adding Marvel Entertainment in 2009, and Lucasfilm in 2012.
