Richard Rosenberg, a marketing whiz who transformed Bank of America into a national behemoth under his leadership, died on March 3 at his home in San Francisco. He was 92.

He joined Bank of America in 1987and helped make the bank profitable again by creating new products and lines of business, like credit cards. He was named chief executive and chairman in 1990 and soon turned Bank of America into the nation’s second-largest bank through a series of acquisitions.

Before joining Bank of America, he held leadership positions at Wells Fargo, Crocker-National, Seattle-First National Bank, and Seafirst Corporation.

As a wealthy philanthropist, Mr. Rosenberg and his wife have donated money to more than 150 organizations, The New York Times said.
