Congratulations to Donald Marron

The Tax Policy Center, a joint venture of Brookings and the Urban Institute has hired Donald Marron to be its new director. This is great news for both Donald and the organization. Hopefully Donald will maintain his blog when he assumes his new job duties in May. It is a great source for solid economic analysis. Donald has now served as the director of quite a prestigous list of acronyms here in DC: JEC, CEA, CBO, and now TPC. On a more personal note, you can read about his near brush with Somali pirates on his personal travel blog. Once again, congratulations.
