The Topps Company, the creator and marketer of sports cards, named Ryan O'Hara president and CEO. O'Hara, who was previously the president of TV Guide Network and TVGuide.com, will assume the new
role on March 1. Michael D. Eisner, chairman of Topps, who purchased the company with Madison Dearborn Partners in 2007, says the appointment "will help Topps capture a greater share of consumers'
leisure time." O'Hara had earlier led TV Guide-owned interactive horse-racing network TVG, growing its revenue and distribution by one-third.
