Whitesell — a former talent agent and the executive chairman of Endeavor, who with longtime business partner Ari Emanuel reportedly owns Endeavor shares worth $840 million Despite his entertainment industry success and obviously vast wealth, Whitesell isn’t exactly a household name. To the casual news follower, the 57-year-old Iowa native probably best known for his very public split from first wife Lauren Sanchez and subsequent marriage to his current wife, Australian model/actress Pia Whitesell, née Miller. (Sanchez, a veteran L.A. entertainment reporter and journalist, is now coupled with Jeff Bezos.) Previously, Whitesell served as Endeavor’s Co-Chief Executive Officer, following his role as Co-Chief Executive Officer of WME. Mr. Whitesell also serves on the Board of Directors of Learfield and Under Armour and is a graduate of Luther College.
