Chairman, Ford Smart Mobility LLC. Jim Hackett is chairman of Ford Smart Mobility LLC, a subsidiary of Ford Motor Company formed to accelerate the companyâs plans to design, build, grow and invest in emerging mobility services. He was named to the position March 10, 2016.
In 1954, Hackett appeared as a regular on the short-lived ABC variety show The Martha Wright Show, also known as The Packard Showroom. However, what made Hackett something of a household name was his being hired by Jackie Gleason as a cornet soloist for some of Gleason's earliest mood music albums. Starting in 1952, Hackett appeared on Gleason's first Capitol Records album, Music for Lovers Only. The record â as well as all of Gleason's next 10 albums - went gold. Hackett went on to appear on six more Gleason LPs. This association led directly to Hackett signing with Capitol for a series of his own albums. In 1965, he toured with singer Tony Bennett.
