Financier, patriotic philanthropist, global businessman, talk-show host, company chairman, amateur historian. That’s David Rubenstein, who leads and innovates in whatever role he has taken on in public life. He helped pioneer private equity and became a billionaire. He not only leads philanthropic projects - he often pays for them. And now the man who claims not to be a journalist is host of one of Bloomberg’s fastest-growing programs, managing to get away with asking General Motors CEO Mary Barra if she pumps her own gas. For SABEW, he'll answer those Rubenstein-style questions from the guest chair, in a conversation with former Bloomberg Businessweek editor Megan Murphy.
