Overstock.com has named Jonathan Johnson III president. He had been the company's svp of corporate affairs and legal since joining the online retailer in September 2002.
"Jonathan has developed into a tremendous asset for our team," said Patrick Byrne, chairman and ceo of Overstock.com. "He has gone from simply providing adult supervision for me, to being a fine, aggressive contributor across many facets of our firm's operations. He has grown from being the lawyer working in business to a businessman who happens to be trained in the law."
