Randi Jayne Zuckerberg[4] (born 1982) is the marketing director of Facebook, and sister of Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
Ranked among 50 "Digital Power Players" by the Hollywood Reporter in 2010,[2] Zuckerberg organized and also was a correspondent for the ABC News / Facebook Democratic Party and Republican Party U.S. Presidential primaries debates in 2008 as well as the CNN/Facebook Inauguration Day Partnership in 2009 and Comcast’s Facebook Diaries.[5] Zuckerberg also was a correspondent at both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions for Facebook in 2008. Remaining politically neutral,[6] Zuckerberg garnered a reputation for being outspoken; for example, she told the Wall Street Journal that her Facebook journalist team was treated at the DNC "like rock stars."[7] On the evening of November 2, 2010, Zuckerberg worked at a "town hall" assembled by ABC News as part of its television coverage of U.S. national midterm elections.[6] The full seven hours of this event were webcast in their entirety on both ABC's website and Facebook.
She authored Spark Your Career in Advertising. Prior to Facebook, she was a panelist on Forbes on Fox.[1]
