Arthur L. Williams, Jr.

Arthur L. Williams, Jr. (Art Williams) is a billionaire insurance executive living in Palm Beach, Florida. He is the founder of A.L. Williams & Associates, known as Primerica Financial Services since 1991.

Williams also owned the Tampa Bay Lightning of the National Hockey League in the 1998-99 NHL season. In his one year of ownership, he went a long way towards moving the team out of financial trouble by paying team creditors past due amounts of money. He also tried to sign a few veteran players in their mid-30s to get the team on the winning track in a short period of time. In spite of this, the team was still largely unsuccessful and Williams himself lost $20 million.
