The Walt Disney Company confirmed that its chief financial officer, Christine McCarthy, is stepping down and will take a medical leave of absence, according to the media giant.
Disney’s chief executive, Bob Iger, confirmed her departure in a news release issued Thursday, saying that McCarthy “is stepping down from her CFO role as she takes family medical leave, but has graciously offered to move into an advisory position to assist her successor in assuming the duties she has so expertly handled these many years.”
