Wolin, executive vice president and general counsel for The Hartford. "His energy and creative thinking will be instrumental in confronting many of the company's most difficult and complex challenges. We are confident that Andy will be an outstanding leader and will build on the accomplishments of David Robb, who has assembled a strong team and leaves behind a real legacy of achievement."
Pinkes, a native of West Hartford, Conn., graduated from Connecticut College with a Bachelor of Arts in history. He received his Juris Doctorate from Western New England College School of Law and is admitted to the Connecticut state bar.
