Mobile content memory lane: Where are these top executives today?

On the eve of the CTIA Wireless IT & Entertainment 2009 show, FierceMobileContent thought it might be interesting to highlight some of the top movers and shakers in the mobile content industry--these are the folks who we believe helped chart the course of the mobile entertainment industry over the past decade. They spoke on panels, networked at industry conferences, talked to the press and championed the early vision for mobile entertainment--whether it was games, video, music or even something as simple as text message voting.  

Of course, the mobile content industry has changed dramatically over the past few years, and we have seen lots of industry consolidation, company closures and corporate restructuring. Nevertheless, many of these mobile content executives have remained a part of the industry, either by trying new ventures, starting their own businesses or moving up the corporate ladder.

Today's list is the first of a two-part series. We will run the second part on Monday, Oct. 5. Of course, this list of movers and shakers is not inclusive. I'm sure there are many other mobile content executives who played a key role in the early days of industry, but perhaps worked behind the scenes or were not as visible to us. As always, please send me your comments, criticisms and thoughts.
