June 26, 2006 -- Four graduates of the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business have been named to Black MBA Magazine’s list of the “Top 50 Under 50” African-American corporate executives.

Darden alumni Thomas Baltimore (’91), Bryan Simms (’94), Warren Thompson (’83) and William Wright (’87) were all named to the prestigious list.

“They were selected based on their positions within a publicly or privately traded company, their responsibility in managing significant revenues, plus they must have revenue generating or operational responsibilities, and hold an MBA,” said Black MBA Magazine spokesperson Sharon Allen.

Baltimore is president of RLJ Development in Bethesda, Md.; Simms is senior vice president of Lehman Brothers in New York; Thompson is president, chairman and CEO of Thompson Hospitality Corporation in northern Virginia; and Wright is managing director of Morgan Stanley in New York.

“Darden is extremely proud of each of these individuals,” said Darden School of Business Dean Robert Bruner. They each have made significant contributions to the success of their respective companies, to Darden and to the University of Virginia.”

The complete “Top 50 under 50” list will be published in the summer issue of Black MBA Magazine.
