New President for Image

CHATSWORTH: Image Entertainment’s longtime CFO, Jeff Framer, has been tapped to take over as president, with David Borshell leaving the company.

Framer has been with Image since 1990, serving as CFO for the last 15 years. He takes over from Borshell, who filled the president post for less than a year. Bill Bromiley will continue to serve as chief acquisitions officer, while Rick Eiberg, formerly executive VP of operations and chief technology officer, is now COO.

“On behalf of our shareholders, employees and the board, we want to thank David for his many contributions to Image and for his years of service," said Martin W. Greenwald, chairman of the board. "David was an integral part of Image Entertainment’s growth over the past 24 years."

Framer will assume his new responsibilities effective immediately, and will continue as CFO until his replacement is appointed. “Working with Bill, Rick and the board, my goal is to continue Image’s growth as a leading entertainment company, providing value to shareholders, desirable product to retailers and superior content to consumers.”
