She speaks for Rahm
Charleston native works for Obama's chief of staff

This profile of Charleston native Sarah Feinberg appeared in Politico earlier this year.

On Thursday, Feinberg's boss, Rahm Emanuel, agreed to be President-elect Barack Obama's chief of staff. Feinberg's husband, Daniel Pfeiffer, was named communications director for the Obama transition team.

According to Feinberg's mother, federal judge Mary Stanley, Feinberg doesn't know yet what role she may play in an Obama administration.

    From a linguistic viewpoint, Barack's choice of Rahm is a beautiful example of serendipity. In Hebrew, BaRaQ (bet-resh-kuf) means "lighting" and Ra3aM (resh-aiyin-mem) means "thunder". They should work very well together.
