Mark Attanasio

Chairman and Principal Owner at Milwaukee Brewers

The 2021 season is the 17th for Mark Attanasio as chairman and principal owner of the Milwaukee Brewers. Last season, Attanasio oversaw the organization as it navigated the unprecedented 2020 year, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a shortened 60-game schedule, and without fans attending in-person.

In the end, the Brewers remained focused on playing top-quality baseball in adverse conditions and achieved their third consecutive postseason appearance, a first in franchise history.

Over the course of Attanasio's leadership, the Brewers have been one of the National League's most competitive teams, tying for the league's fourth-highest winning percentage (1262-1229, .507). In addition, over the past four years, the Brewers have been one of the most successful clubs in all of Major League Baseball. Milwaukee is one of just six teams that have qualified for the postseason in each of the last three years, while only two National League teams have accumulated more wins during that span.

Attanasio has embraced the growing partnership with American Family Insurance as it continues in 2021 with the Club's ballpark now named American Family Field. This follows the re-naming of its Spring Training facility in 2019 to American Family Fields of Phoenix as part of its transformation into a state-of-the-art training and development facility. Over the past 17 years, the Brewers have invested significant resources to enhance the fan experience at American Family Field, consistently rated as one of the best venues in baseball.

Attanasio has also worked to maintain continuity among the organization's leadership by securing long-term contracts with President of Baseball Operations David Stearns, President of Business Operations Rick Schlesinger and Craig Counsell, who is now the longest-tenured manager in the National League.
