About Me

After acquiring a fortune in the early 1980s from his trading firm J.W. Henry & Co., John Henry started building a sports empire. Henry and his partner Tom Werner bought the Boston Red Sox in 2002 for $380 million and delivered the Sox their first World Series win in 86 years in 2004. Their Fenway Sports Group owns majority stakes in New England Sports Network and Nascar's Roush Fenway Racing. Henry also has a stake in Premier League soccer team Liverpool, which won the Champions League in 2019. He bought the Boston Globe in 2013 for $70 million and in 2017 moved the 145-year-old newspaper back to downtown Boston where it was first founded. His Fenway Sports Group bought a majority stake in the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins in a 2021 deal that valued the team at $900 million.
