Fulham Co. Inc. (Hawthorne, Calif.): After nearly 20 years of stewardship, Brian Wald, the company's founder, CEO and president, plans to transition from his current role to one of governance and policy development as a member of Fulham’s board of directors.
According to a press release announcing the transition, Wald’s decision was made possible through the successful migration of day-to-day responsibilities to top senior executives uniquely qualified to handle the needs of Fulham’s growing business across innovative, new products such as controllable induction, controllable HID, controllable LED and controllable fluorescent lighting systems.
“Global demand for Fulham’s products is at an all time high,” says Wald. “Thus, no better time to turn over the reins.”

During that time he and the editorial team for the publications have won numerous national awards for their coverage of the electrical business. He showed an early interest in electricity, when as a youth he had an idea for a hot dog cooker. Unfortunately, the first crude prototype malfunctioned and the arc nearly blew him out of his parents' basement. Before becoming an editor for Electrical Wholesaling magazine and Electrical Marketing, he earned a BA degree in journalism and a MA in communications from Glassboro State College, Glassboro, NJ., which is formerly best known as the site of the 1967 summit meeting between President Lyndon Johnson and Russian Premier Aleksei Nikolayevich Kosygin, and now best known as the New Jersey state college that changed its name in 1992 to Rowan University because of a generous $100 million donation by N.J. zillionaire industrialist Henry Rowan. Jim is a Brooklyn-born Jersey Guy happily transplanted in the fertile plains of Kansas for the past 20 years.
