About Me

Micky Arison is chairman of the world's largest cruise ship operator, Carnival Corp. He spent 34 years as CEO of Carnival, helping grow its fleet from two ships to more than 100, before stepping down in June 2013. Born in Tel Aviv, he immigrated to the U.S. as a young child with his father, Ted Arison (d. 1999), who cofounded Carnival in 1972 with a single ship. When Carnival was founded, Arison dropped out of the University of Miami to become a sales rep for the cruise line. In 1995, he took control of the Miami Heat, the NBA franchise his father helped bring to Florida. Since then the team has won three NBA championships.
