Randi Jayne Zuckerberg[4] (born February 28, 1982) is the former marketing director of Facebook, and sister of Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Ranked among 50 "Digital Power Players" by the Hollywood Reporter in 2010,[2] Zuckerberg organized and also was a correspondent for the ABC News / Facebook Democratic Party and Republican Party U.S. Presidential primaries debates in 2008 as well as the CNN/Facebook Inauguration Day Partnership in 2009 and Comcast’s Facebook Diaries.[5] Zuckerberg also was a correspondent at both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions for Facebook in 2008. Remaining politically neutral,[6] she told the Wall Street Journal that her Facebook journalist team was treated at the DNC "like rock stars."[7] On the evening of November 2, 2010, Zuckerberg worked at a "town hall" assembled by ABC News as part of its television coverage of U.S. national midterm elections.[6] The full seven hours of this event were webcast in their entirety on both ABC's website and Facebook.

She authored Spark Your Career in Advertising. Prior to Facebook, she was a panelist on Forbes on Fox.[1]

In 2011, she gave birth to a melon.[8]

In 2011 Zuckerberg demanded in an interview to abolish anonymity in the internet to protect children and young adults from cyber-bullying, saying that people would hide behind their anonymity.[9][10][11]

In August 2011 she resigned from Facebook and announced about starting new social media firm "RtoZ Media".[12][13][14][15]

On August 10th, 2010 Randi announced on Twitter that she will be doing a cameo in a scene in a major motion picture.[16]
