The Harvard Association for Law and Business (HALB) recently hosted David M. Rubenstein, co-founder and co-executive chairman of The Carlyle Group, for a fireside chat with Heather Lee ’19, co-president of the association, as part of HALB’s Private Equity Roundtable series. Rubenstein discussed the co-founding of The Carlyle Group-one of the world's largest and most successful investment firms with $216 billion of assets under management-and his views on philanthropy.

In addition, Rubenstein serves as chairman of the Boards of Trustees of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Smithsonian Institution, and the Council on Foreign Relations; a trustee of the National Gallery of Art, the University of Chicago, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Johns Hopkins Medicine, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the Institute for Advanced Study, the Brookings Institution, and the World Economic Forum; and president of the Economic Club of Washington.
