Rex Tillerson is an American businessman and politician who served as the 69th United States Secretary of State under President Donald Trump from February 2017 until March 2018. Before his tenure in government, Tillerson was the chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil, one of the world's largest oil and gas companies.
