A longtime Washington insider, Rosen has always straddled the worlds of politics and entertainment throughout her career. The former chairman and CEO of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), she was the official face of the industry's interests as music was going digital. Since leaving the organization in 2003, she has said, "I was impatient with the pace of the industry's embrace of online distribution of music." She's bounced back as a managing partner of the D.C. office of corporate communications partnership Brunswick Group LLC, and in her spare time, she's editor at large for the Huffington Post and a CNN political contributor.
