Former Congresswoman Susan Molinari has joined Google as VP-public policy and government relations in North/South America and Washington office chief, according to Politico.
She replaces Alan Davidson, who late last year announced his plan to leave the search giant. Her mission is to educate lawmakers about the technology of Google’s business and how the company affects the economy and culture.
Republican Molinari represented Staten Island and a slice of Brooklyn in Congress from 1990 to 1997.
She had been running Susan Molinari Strategies, a government affairs shop. Earlier, she was senior principal at ex-New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s Bracewell & Giuliani, president of Ketchum Public Affairs and CEO of its lobbying firm, the Washington Group. |
