I object to the deletion of the page. As far as I know, Peng Zhao is the first Chinese American CEO of a top US hedge fund. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LiuJiageng (talk • contribs) 05:57, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of Citadel Securities, I'd like to remove Peng’s birth year from the info box as it is incorrect and lacks a supporting citation.

Education, Philanthropy and Boards
![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hi. I have a few changes to suggest to the page, adding some new information to keep the article current.
- At the end of the "Education" section please add the following sentence:
- In May 2022, he was a guest speaker at the UC Berkeley Statistics Commencement.[1]
- Beneath the "Career" section please create a new section called "Boards and other memberships" and add the following content to the new section:
- He serves on the board of trustees for the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago[2] and is a director of the National Committee on U.S. China Relations.[3] He is a founding board member of the non-profit advocacy and anti-discrimination group The Asian American Foundation (TAAF), established in 2021.[4][5][6]
- In the "Philanthropy" section, in the first sentence, after the word "wife" please add the name "Cherry Chen".
- Also in the "Philanthropy" section, please add a new paragraph after the first sentence with the following content:
- The couple also supports Kartemquin Films, a non-profit documentary filmmaking organization, in its efforts to fund filmmakers from the AAPI community through the Peng Zhao and Cherry Chen Fund for AAPI Voices.[7][8] The couple were co-executive producers of the award-winning documentary "Finding Yingying", which was released by Kartemquin Films.[9] Zhao and Chen also fund the Victor Wong Fellowship, a program associated with Chicago's Second City, to train and mentor aspiring comedians from the AAPI community.[10][11] Peng and other founding board members of TAAF committed $125 million to support AAPI organizations and causes at launch. According to the New York Times, it was the single largest philanthropic gift devoted to Asian Americans.[4]

Hi Spintendo. Thanks for implementing those items and for your explanation regarding the commencement speech. I wonder if it would help if I re-wrote that sentence and included a Wikilink to the University page? What about something like this:
- In May 2022, he was a guest speaker at the commencement event for the Statistics department of UC Berkeley's College of Computing, Data Science and Society (CDSS). [1]

I appreciate you taking the time to look at this. Thanks again, Cduffymul (talk) 14:50, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Cduffymul I'm not sure if that helps. The commencement that this text is speaking of, is that a regular commencement ceremony that is held at the University every year? or is it some special event beyond that. I think if they were speaking at the regular commencement ceremony, that would not really be notable, especially if it's only referenced by the university. If it was an extra special event which was covered by third party sources, then I think that would mandate it having been placed in the article. (hint: Even if it was a regular commencement ceremony he was speaking at, local media in the East Bay may have covered it, in which case it could be added to the article). Please advise. Regards, Spintendo 03:32, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Spintendo. I understand your reasoning for leaving out the commencement speech. So far, I have not seen a third-party source discussing it. Thanks for clarifying the issue. Cduffymul (talk) 13:43, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
Remove unsupported false statements

Hi. It just came to my attention that the last sentence in the Philanthropy section is not true, and also is not verified by the source provided. Since this is a BLP, I hope that the sentence can be removed as soon as possible. I am pinging Castncoot who made the edit in May 2023. The sentence which should be removed is as follows:
- In 2023, after moving to the Citadel office in Midtown Manhattan, Zhao began donating to New York City-based civic and charitable causes.
In addition, the last phrase in the introduction is also incorrect, is not sourced, and should be removed. Please delete "and is based in New York City." Thanks so much for your consideration. Cduffymul (talk) 17:20, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi. I have two edits for this edit request; both are updates to keep the article current.
- In the Career section, please add the following sentence to the very end of the third paragraph (last paragraph.)
- Between 2017 when Peng was appointed CEO, until 2023, the firm grew from 300 employees to over 1,600.[1]
- In the Affiliations section, please remove the following phrase and source from the first sentence. Peng is no longer a member of the board of trustees of the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. You can check here and see he is no longer listed on the board: https://www.msichicago.org/explore/about-us/leadership/board-of-trustees/
- serves on the board of trustees for the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and
The sentence should now say
- He is a director of the National Committee on U.S. China Relations.
