Bruce Williamson is the CEO of Dynegy, a Houston-based energy company.[1]

Williamson was born in Great Falls, Montana to George and June Williamson.[2] Williamson graduated from Great Falls High School in 1977, spent his freshman year of college at the University of Idaho, transferred to the University of Montana-Missoula, and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in finance in 1981.[2] After discovering that the only employment he could get in Montana was a $10,000-a-year bank job, he took a position with Shell Oil in Houston, Texas, largely because a friend lived there.[2] He later obtained a Master of Business Administration from the University of Houston.[2]

Williamson left Shell to work for Pan Energy Corporation. Pan Energy merged with the Duke Power Company in 1997 to become Duke Energy.[2] Williamson rose to the position of President and CEO of Duke Energy Global Markets.[2] In 2002, he was named President and Chief Executive Officer of Dynegy.[2]

Williamson and his wife, Kim, have two daughters.[2]
