"Desirée has a proven track record of successful business leadership,"  LINDA JOHNSON RICE

I am so amazed at how one great moment with a HUGE glitch can lead to another GREAT opportunity with a lot of precursors. While Ms. Rogers has made history as the First African American White House Social Secretary, she also became the first to RESIGN this esteemed post after the now infamous "Uninvited Guest" fiasco!  What dexterity she has to say the least, in light of all that she has experienced in such a short period of time.  I am always in awe of the strength of women and even more of those whose ancestry bring its own baggage without provocation.  So now she moves on to the oldest and larger publishing house owned and operated by African Americans the great Johnson Dynasty.  Although Ms. Rogers has never worked in publishing, her business acumen has been lauded by Mrs Rice and the support is there.  Johnson Rice has expressed that the Magazine and cosmetic line (Fashion Fair) have both been struggling as of late, and need to be revamped alongside the launching of the Web site in hopes of giving the brand an online presence. I will be a quiet observer (maybe not) and make a clear petition to "be a part of the solution"!  Call me Desi...seriously, I would be honored and well equipped to write the FUNNY and all things Phenomenal about emerging womanhood, onto the cyber-pages of JET and EBONY!!  Until we connect...
