WarnerMedia Names Jennifer Biry Chief Financial Officer

December 2, 2020 – New York, NY – WarnerMedia announced today Jennifer Biry as Chief Financial Officer. Biry will lead all financial operations for WarnerMedia, replacing Pascal Desroches, who will be moving into the role of Chief Financial Officer, AT&T, Inc.
