Robert W. Sarnoff (1918–1997) was a prominent American businessman known for leading Radio Corporation of America (RCA) as CEO and chairman after his father, David Sarnoff. He championed color television and aimed to diversify RCA into various sectors including rental cars and publishing. However, this shift was marked by financial struggles, particularly during the 1973–1975 recession, leading to his removal by company executives. RCA's decline continued post his tenure, culminating in its sale to General Electric in 1986. Sarnoff passed away in 1997 after battling cancer.
