Hugh Hefner's daughter with his first wife, Millie, is Christie Hefner.
(She went to Brandeis a few years before I was at B.U.
Boston has a lot of colleges.)
Christie worked at her dad's magazine, Playboy, and when she was 29 years old, she became CEO and ran it for 20 years.
I vaguely remember when it was in the news that she was going to lead that company. (Kind of unexpected.)
She has said working with her father in that business went well because his main interest was in the editorial and creative side of the magazine, while her focus was on business strategy.
She said it also didn't hurt that in the era when she was CEO, her dad lived in Los Angeles, and she still lived in Chicago.
