After winning a Medal of Honor in Vietnam, being a United States senator, and running the New School in New York, Bob Kerrey’s latest challenge will be in Hollywood. Kerrey has been selected to be the next chairman of the Motion Picture Association of America, though a deal has yet to be signed. Kerrey was chosen by the heads of the studios that make up the MPAA—Disney, Warner Bros., Sony, NBC Universal, 20th Century Fox and Paramount—to replace Dan Glickman, who held the post for five years and was widely criticized for not providing strong enough leadership.
