Craig Jackson is the Chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson Auction Company. Over decades he has earned the reputation as one of the world’s most respected automotive collectors and restoration experts. In addition to the numerous Barrett-Jackson Auctions, that take place across the country, Craig is an avid automotive collector and enthusiast. This past January, Barrett-Jackson celebrated their most successful auction ever in Scottsdale, Arizona during their annual event. Craig and his team will be celebrating Barrett-Jackson’s 50th anniversary in 2021 which no doubt will be another banner year for their company and their customers.
