While with Marvel, Mr. Handel helped orchestrate its sale to Walt Disney for $4 billion in a blockbuster Hollywood deal which put Marvel’s 5,000 characters to work for Disney in a union considered at the time to be one of the largest US corporate transactions of the year. It marked a stunning turnaround for Marvel, originally a comic book company, which filed for bankruptcy in 1996 under heavy debts as it faced a slump in comic book sales.
Additional, he has served as Vice Chairman of the Board of Regents of the University of Hartford. Handel served as a director of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra becoming a emeritus director, a Bushnell overseer, and a life regent at the University of Hartford. The University received a lead gift from the Handel’s to help establish the Hartt School's "Mort and Irma Handel Performing Arts Center."
