Subject: Re: New Board Member (at Berkshire)
I am somewhat disappointed at the selection of yet another money manager / investor, after recent additions, Chris Davis and Wally Weitz, who joined Meryl Witmer.

However I don't question Murphy's credentials, substantial shareholding and knowledge of BRK culture imbibed through his father.

A successful business founder / CEO of a large global corporation would have been a better choice. Indira Nooyi, ex-Pepsi CEO would have checked most boxes. Or someone with a strong tech background, to fill the gap left by Bill Gates. Tim Cook would be perfect, but not sure whether BRK's substantial Apple holding would disqualify him.
