Robert A. Altman

Robert Alan Altman (February 23, 1947 – February 3, 2021) was an American lawyer and video game executive. In 1999, Christopher Weaver founded ZeniMax Media as the parent holding company for Bethesda Softworks, a video game developer Weaver had founded earlier, and brought Altman in as CEO. However, Altman later forced Weaver out of the company, causing Weaver to sue for wrongful termination. Altman served as ZeniMax Media's chief executive officer and chairman on the board until his death. Altman and the rest of the board pushed Bethesda to increase profits to make the company look more lucrative for a buyout, and its purchase by Microsoft following his death resulted in the board being dissolved.CHRISTOPHER S.
