The Atlantic Legal Foundation was honored to recognize Darren W. Woods, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Exxon Mobil Corporation, as its 35th Annual Honoree at a reception and dinner held on October 10th in the Grand Ballroom of The Junior League of Houston, attended by 200 guests.
Mr. Woods, joined by Jeffrey A. Taylor – ExxonMobil’s Vice President, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary – participated in a dynamic fireside chat-style Q&A. Their engaging exchange, which included audience participation, received enthusiastic reviews and was a highlight of the evening.
ALF Director William G. Primps served as the dinner chair for the evening, while ALF Chairman and President Hayward Dan Fisk introduced Darren Woods and Jeffrey Taylor. Mr. Fisk then presented Mr. Woods with the Foundation’s award – a museum-quality bronze reproduction of Frederic Remington’s Coming Through the Rye, the artist’s most ambitious and celebrated work.
