Peter Mullin is the Co-Founder and Chairman of The Board of M Financial Holdings Incorporated, a network of independent firms that serves the financial and life insurance needs of corporations and executives. His lifelong romance with the automobile, particularly French automobiles, culminated in the Mullin Automotive Museum in Oxnard, California. He owns one of the finest collections of French cars in the world and the museum is a tribute to these cars in a spectacular setting for the public to enjoy. Peter sits on the Petersen Museum Board of Directors along numerous other organizations, universities, and groups. In 2015 Automobile Magazine elected Peter as their Man of the Year for being the driving force of the newly redesigned Petersen Automotive Museum and his donation of $15 million to the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
