Donahue Schriber Names Michael Glimcher Chair, CEO & President

Costa Mesa-based Donahue Schriber Realty Group hired Michael Glimcher to replace retiring executives Patrick S. Donahue, Chairman and CEO, and Lawrence P. Casey, President and COO, effective November 2, 2020. Donahue and Casey, with 41 and 20 years, respectively with the firm, will remain with the company as Board Representatives until early Q2 2021.

The company also hired Kevin Halleran as EVP and CFO. Both Glimcher and Halleran have most recently been with Starwood Retail Partners in Chicago.

Donahue, current Chairman and CEO of the shopping center private REIT, says, “We identified Michael as the prime candidate for this position. Michael has the experience, intelligence and energy to take Donahue Schriber to the next level and realize the company’s full potential. We couldn’t be more pleased that Michael has agreed to lead Donahue Schriber going forward.”

Glimcher began his career in the industry nearly 30 years ago at Glimcher Realty Trust where he ultimately served as CEO from 2005 to 2017 and as Chairman from 2007 to 2015.
