For the president of the Santa Fe Railroad, see John Shedd Reed.

John Shepard Reed is the former Chairman of the New York Stock Exchange. He previously served as Chairman and CEO of Citicorp, Citibank, and post-merger, Citigroup.

He was born in 1939 in Chicago, Illinois, and raised in Argentina and Brazil. He earned his undergraduate degree from Washington and Jefferson College and his Master's degree in Management (M.B.A.) from the MIT Sloan School of Management.

He was heavily responsible for pushing for the adoption of the ATM around the country, and led Citicorp through a perilous period in the early 90's. He was approached by Sandy Weill to merge with Travelers Group and the result was Citigroup. He was later ousted in a management shakeup.
