Calabrese: A Potential FCC Pick Under Obama?
Michael Calabrese, vice president and director of the wireless future program at the New America Foundation, acknowledges that he may be one of the candidates being considered for a slot as FCC Commissioner in President-elect Barack Obama's administration. "I've heard I'm on a list of people being considered as an FCC commissioner, but I'm sure at this point it's quite a long list,” Calabrese said in response to an inquiry on the topic. Although he added that as far as he is aware there is no formal process yet underway for FCC appointments. Calabrese has previously served as director of domestic policy programs at the Center for National Policy, as general counsel of the Congressional Joint Economic Committee, and as pension and employee benefits counsel at the national AFL-CIO. Calabrese is a graduate of Stanford Business and Law Schools. -- Winter Casey
