Biography
Former Chairman and CEO of Atlantic Records Jason Flom has been a passionate advocate for the unheard for over forty years. After working his way up from the mailroom to the top of Atlantic Records, Flom became a founding board member of the Innocence Project, pivoting towards his current work as a globally recognized leader in criminal justice reform. As the founder of Lava Media, which encompasses a record label, music publishing, and a fast-growing podcast company, Jason’s typical day ranges from discovering and launching superstar artists including Grammy-winners Lorde and Greta Van Fleet to advocating with elected officials and policymakers, activist groups, celebrities, and other philanthropists to reform the inequities in the criminal legal system. On Lava for Good Podcasts’ Webby Awards-honored Wrongful Conviction series, Jason has interviewed and raised international awareness for the cases of hundreds of innocent men and women imprisoned for crimes they didn’t commit, many facing death sentences. Jason also hosts Righteous Convictions, a podcast that spotlights today’s social justice leaders and change-makers to uncover the most powerful actions we can take together to inspire meaningful reform and equal justice. It’s impossible to come away from a conversation with Jason without feeling inspired and able to do more good in the world utilizing the resources we have at hand.
Flom has been honored as a Billboard Change Agent and awarded the City of Hope’s Ambassador Award, the Spirit of Life Award, and the Correctional Association of New York Social Justice Award. Whether championing an unknown singer to stardom, a social justice startup to prominence, or a wrongfully convicted death row inmate to freedom, Flom’s keen ear, infectious dedication, and relentless pursuit of good music and equal justice for all make him one of the most uniquely influential and intriguing figures of our time.
