As it struggles to regain its footing, Sharper Image hires new CFO
Rebecca L. Roedell has been named CFO of struggling Sharper Image Corp. Roedell previously was CFO for Tower Records, where she participated in the completion of the Chapter 11 filing and subsequent sale of the company.
She will assume her duties around May 31, the company reports, when it expects to become current in its Form 10-K financial filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission for fiscal year 2006.
Sharper Image, No. 122 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, says that until it is current in its filings, Daniel W. Nelson will continue as interim CFO; Roedell will be retained as a consultant, working on special financial reporting projects currently under development. Once the Form 10-K is filed, Nelson will return to his previous position as senior vice president, controller and principal accounting officer.
Before joining Tower Records, Roedell held senior assurance manager positions at KPMG and Arthur Andersen. She began her career working as a controller for two privately held companies in California.
