GSA's New Communications Chief

General Services Administration chief Lurita Doan has found a new communicatons director: Edward Blakely, who previously headed the Department of Strategic Communication for former Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. There "he created a virtual communications, marketing and advertising agency using existing state personnel and resources," GSA says, so that the state didn't have to contract out such activities. Blakely also will head up GSA's Office of Citizen Services.
