  rdhyee rdhyee  @ellenp Question about how organizational relationships show up. I was surprised to not see Laura D. Tyson was not to be found under UC Berkeley. I then figured out that Laura Tyson is listed under Haas School of Business, a child org to UC Berkeley. Will there be work done to show also members of child orgs?
ellenp ellenp  Obama is talking about White House visitor logs and transparency for lobbyists at the State of the Union right now!
ellenp ellenp  CEOs from Goldman Sachs, BofA, Merrill Lynch and JPMorgan faced tough questions today from members of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, many of whom
have former ties to the financial industry themselves.
ellenp ellenp  Help us beef up the profiles of the two candidates for Ted Kennedy's Senate seats: Martha Coakley and Scott P. Brown.
ellenp ellenp  @WileECoyote Way to pick up right where I left off with David L/ Sokol, Wile!
ellenp ellenp  ABC News reports Chelsea Clinton is now engaged to longtime boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky, a Goldman Sachs investment banker ... of course.
ellenp ellenp  Curious that the US Chamber of Commerce's main environmental policy analyst Bill Kovacs used to work for Sunshine Makers (who manufacture the Simple Green line of products) and has a history on Capitol Hill working to enact environmental law. I guess he'll say whatever Thomas Donohue tells him to ...
  kevin kevin  Chamber group--

Beyond the political $ data (see http://blog.littlesis.org/tag/chamber-of-commerce/) we're working on compiling more info on the board members -- relationships showing where they've worked, what boards they sit on, where they went to school, what clubs they belong to, etc., so that we can do a bit more analysis.

Five of you are working through the board list -- if you need a hand, just say so. And if you don't currently have an assignment, there's other stuff to be working on, for instance on the Committee of 100. Always!

Great work so far everyone.

ellenp ellenp  Interesting interlocks on the boards at National Chamber Foundation and Center for International Private Enterprise, both non-profit arms of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
ellenp ellenp  The Federal Open Market Committee, meeting today and tomorrow, is pretty much the usual group of suspects. And not surprisingly, its members have ties to Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Wachovia and Fannie Mae.
ellenp ellenp  Interesting connection between Alcoa CEO Alain Belda and Citibank CEO William Rhodes -- both are members of the US-Brazil CEO Forum. Belda also sits on the board of Citigroup.
ellenp ellenp  If Michael Powell needs any advice on how to be a director at AOL, he can just ask his dad, Colin Powell, who was on the AOL Board in the late '90s. The younger Powell also oversaw AOL's merger with Time Warner during his tenure as FCC Chairman.
ellenp ellenp  Bank of America has reportedly narrowed its CEO candidates to three: Chief Risk Officer Gregory Curl, Small-Business Banking Chief Brian Brian Moynihan and outsider Merrill Lynch COO Gregory Fleming. Help us find out more about them!
