Louis J. Briskman

Executive Vice President and General Counsel, CBS Corporation

Louis J. Briskman serves as the Chief Legal Officer of CBS Corporation.  In this role, he oversees all legal activities for the company.

Prior to the Viacom split, Briskman served as Executive Vice President and General Counsel of CBS.  From 2004 – 2005, he was Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Aetna Inc. Before joining Aetna, Briskman had a long career at Westinghouse's broadcasting company, and at CBS. He joined Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1975, became General Counsel of the company's broadcasting subsidiary, known as Group W, in 1983, and rose to the position of the parent corporation's General Counsel, Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1993. He served in that role through the company's transformation into a pure media entity, which culminated in the acquisition of CBS in 1995 and the name change to CBS Corporation in 1997, where he continued his service as General Counsel.

Briskman is a 1970 graduate of the University of Pittsburgh and a 1973 graduate of the Georgetown University Law Center.  He is a Regent on the Georgetown Board of Regents and Chairperson of the Georgetown Corporate Counsel Institute.
