As the old saying goes, ‘Iron sharpens iron’ - so it makes sense that premier sports agent Leigh Steinberg learned how to negotiate from former United States president Ronald Reagan.
During his 41-year career, Steinberg has represented many of the most successful athletes and coaches in NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, boxing and golf. He has represented the number one overall pick in the NFL Draft for an unprecedented eight times as well as 62 first round-picks.
A best-selling author, entrepreneur and CEO of Leigh Steinberg Sports and Entertainment Holdings, Steinberg worked tirelessly to build his athletes into iconic brands - and his exceptional career was immortalised in the Oscar-winning movie Jerry Maguire. Ironically, the American’s journey to Hollywood started in nearby San Francisco when he attended the University of California, Berkeley.
