of US Steel’s Gary Works plant in Gary, Indiana.
Additionally, he will be responsible for the operations

has more than twice the steelmaking capability of our
second largest US plant, which makes effectively managing

jobs at US Steel. With a background in all aspects of
both aluminum and steel production, and extensive financial
and managerial experience, we are confident that under
Michael’s leadership Gary Works will continue to
achieve new levels of productivity, quality and service.”
