JAY PATERNO
Currently serving on Penn State’s Board of Trustees is just one chapter in Jay Paterno’s life of demonstrated leadership. Paterno’s career includes consulting and work in private equity, philanthropy, athletics, writing and media. That expertise has benefitted Penn State.
As one of the first college Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) consultants in the country, Paterno used that experience to co-found Success With Honor to support Penn State student-athletes in all 31 women’s and men’s sports. In 2022 he was executive producer for “THON: 50 Years for the Kids” which won its television prime-time slot in Philadelphia and New York City.
Paterno authored the best-selling book “Paterno Legacy,” the novel “Hot Seat” and continues to write columns appearing in local, national and international publications. He created the syndicated television show “Nittany Game Week” and the radio show “Pigskin Stew.” Two decades of coaching football provided experience at four different universities.
During that time, Jay also served on philanthropic boards, was part of successful US Presidential campaigns and attended the White House Community Leaders Forum. Nationally he’s been recognized for success as a coach, as one of the top 100 sports tweeters in the world and as a speaker by American Rhetoric (Top American Speeches of the Century). In a personal capacity, he was involved in national crisis management defending Penn State, its football program, and his family through a lengthy international media story.
Above all Jay Paterno is a husband, father, son and proud Penn Stater and resident of Happy Valley.
