[5] Appointed by Ann Richards to be a University of Texas Regent in February 1993, he resigned on August 12, 1993, because he continued to have “a limited business relationship” with Goldman Sachs and he wanted “to avoid any appearance of conflict of interest.”[5] In 2009, Riverstone Holdings LLC named him managing director.
