Wilhelm played an integral role in the 2004 acquisition of the Dodgers and subsequently, from 2004 to 2012, was part of the executive team responsible for nearly doubling revenue; improving EBITDA by over $80 million; completing $150 million in renovations to Dodger Stadium; setting the Dodgers single-season attendance record, in addition to achieving six of the seven all-time Dodger season attendance records; and reaching the playoffs four times in a six-season span, the only time that that had been achieved since the Dodgers' move to Los Angeles in 1958.  This dramatic turnaround both on and off the field of an undervalued sports and media property culminated in the highest sale price ever achieved for a sports franchise in 2012.

Wilhelm earned an MBA in Finance and Operations from the Graduate School of Business at Columbia University and a BA in Economics from Cornell University.  Wilhelm lives in San Jose, California.  He spends weekends in Hermosa Beach, California, with his wife, JB, and daughters, Daly and Lily.
