Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton announced Monday that the Wall Street firm has elected private funds partner Michael Gerstenzang as its new managing partner, effective Jan. 1, 2017.
In his new leadership role, Gerstenzang replaces Mark Leddy, who was named Cleary Gottlieb’s managing partner back in late 2010.
