A relative outsider to the parks department, Ms. White is not new to city government. An environmental lawyer by training, she most recently served as the first executive director of the Center for Economic Opportunity, which was created in 2006 under Mr. Bloomberg to find innovative ways to address poverty. Before that, she held positions at the city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development; her public service reaches all the way back to the administration of Mayor Edward I. Koch.
