John W. Sidgmore became the Chief Executive Officer of UUNET Technologies in June of 1994. When UUNET was purchased by MCI, and later taken over by WorldCom, he later became WorldCom's Chief Operations Officer. Sidgmore worked to revive WorldCom after disgraced CEO Bernard Ebbers left. Sidgmore was instrumental in beginning to turn around the failed company, revealing to federal investigators that $11 billion in accounting fraud, left over from Ebbers' management of the company, had been discovered.

John Sidgmore died suddenly in December of 2003 from acute pancreatitis. He is survived by his wife Randi, and their son Michael.
