Ex-Durham resident new U.S. attorney in New York
Herald-Sun, The (Durham, NC) - Monday, December 18, 2000
Author: From staff reports
Former Durham resident Loretta Lynch has been confirmed by the U.S. Senate as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York.

Lynch , 41, was appointed by U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno to the post on an interim basis in July last year. She previously served as chief assistant attorney in the district. She was recommended to succeed Zachary Carter for the top post. The district, based in Brooklyn, also encompasses Queens, Staten Island and Long Island.

Lynch is the daughter of Lorenzo Lynch , longtime former pastor of White Rock Baptist Church in Durham, and his wife, Lorine.

Loretta Lynch was officially recommended for the position by Sen. Charles E. Schumer of New York, and President Bill Clinton nominated her to the Senate. The Senate confirmed her on Friday.

In a city where name recognition is synonymous with success, Ron Klain has made a virtue of being unknown. As Attorney General Janet Reno’s chief of staff, he is all but invisible to the public but recognized in Democratic circles as the man to have on your side in a political or legal fight. A rare mix of top-flight lawyer and savvy politician, Klain shepherded the nominations of Reno and Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg through the Senate and steered the omnibus crime bill through the turbulent legislative process.

Given Lynch’s inexperience with politics and Washington, it is possible the administration would team her with a Washington veteran as her deputy, someone like Ron Klain, a former chief of staff to Atty. Gen. Janet Reno and Vice Presidents Al Gore and Joe Biden. Obama recently named Klain to oversee the administration’s response to Ebola.

EXCERPT

As an aide to President Clinton, Emanuel co-wrote a memo on the political dynamics of immigration. He and Ron Klain, now the top aide to Vice President Joe Biden, wrote in 1994: “We must be seen as taking proper, forceful steps to seriously address the immigration problem without alienating the Hispanic and civil rights constituencies.
