Life and career
Wells was born in Coronado, California, and traced his ancestry back to the Mayflower. He attended Pomona College, which he left as Phi Beta Kappa in 1953. Wells was the recipient of a Rhodes Scholarship, which gave him a Bachelor's degree at Oxford University. He served in the army for two years as an infantry first lieutenant and then graduated from Stanford Law School and became a lawyer.
Wells served for Warner Bros. as the company's West Coast vice president in 1969, later as president in 1973, and as vice chairman until 1982.
In 1984, Disney's Roy E. Disney, Stanley Gold, and Sid Bass fired President and CEO Ron W. Miller. Wells, the Disney board's chairman and CEO, joined by Michael Eisner as chairman and CEO (1984-1994), and Jeffrey Katzenberg as president and CEO (1984-1994). Wells was unique in that he had the highest academic success among the management trio. Despite being Disney's number-two executive, Wells reported to the board of directors, not Eisner.
