PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and its 74-year association with the Academy AwardsÆ
Continuing its distinguished 73-year association with the Academy Awards,PricewaterhouseCoopers today announced that Brad Oltmanns and Rick Rosas will lead the balloting process for the 79th Annual Academy Awards. PricewaterhouseCoopers' engagement with the Academy represents a tremendous honor for the firm. In 73 years, only 12 partners have counted the ballots. To promote secrecy, Oltmanns and Rosas lead a closed-mouth group of accountants who work on the project from a secret location for several days. There are approximately 6,000 voting members, which translates to approximately 1,700 "person-hours"each year to count and verify the ballots.
