Filling Obama’s Cabinet

January 3rd, 2009 Heather Kovar Posted in Heather Kovar |

So as we watch to see who President-elect Obama re-nominates for Commerce Secretary, The New York Times has an interactive page that I’ve been visiting to get to know all the new names.
Take a look here.

From November 24th

Here are the latest names we’ll get to know.

President-elect Barack Obama has officially unveiled his economic team during a news conference in Chicago. He announced Timothy Geithner as treasury secretary, Lawrence Summers as head of the National Economic Council, Melody Barnes as director of the Domestic Policy Council and Christina Romer as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers.

The name Hillary Clinton is expected to line the shelf as well.  Word is that announcement will come after Thanksgiving.

Check back for bios and links soon.
