    TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Greg Friedman, Chief Executive Officer of Peachtree Hotel Group, will speak at the Shila Bowron Leadership Lecture on Thursday, October 18 at The University of Alabama’s Child Development Research Center. The hospitality management program in The College of Human Environmental Sciences hosts the event which is sponsored by Bill Bowron, CEO of Red Diamond.

    The lecture series, named in honor of Bill Bowron’s mother, began in 2002 to introduce students to a variety of hospitality leaders and their perspectives of the hospitality industry.

    Lectures take place at 9:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Students who attend will benefit from the advice of a hotel executive who has more than 19 years of hospitality experience with an emphasis on deal-structure and financing. 
    ​
    Greg Friedman has successfully led Peachtree Hotel Group in more than $1.9 billion in hotel acquisitions, investments and development since co-founding the company. Friedman formerly was senior vice president of business development for Specialty Finance Group, LLC, a direct lender providing hotel first mortgage and FF&E financing, where he originated more than $2 billion of hotel debt. Previously, he was vice president of business development for GMAC Commercial Mortgage – Asset-Backed Lending Division. During his six-year tenure there, he originated, closed and funded more than 300 hospitality FF&E financing transactions with an aggregate capital structure exceeding $10 billion. Friedman holds a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from the University of Texas at Austin.
