Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) last month named Sarah Rosen communications director.
Rosen is used to handling reporters for Democrats in the California delegation. A former assistant producer for NBC’s “Dateline,” Rosen most recently served as press secretary for Rep. Sam Farr (D-Calif.).
“Sarah will bring valuable insights into the worlds of print and broadcast media,” Harman said.
Also in Harman’s office, David Flanders, the office’s former legislative director, is being promoted. He will become her senior legislative counsel.
