Gov. Lowry Hires New Press Aide

From Staff And Wire Reports

Gov. Mike Lowry on Thursday hired Barbara Dunn as his deputy press secretary.

Dunn, 39, fills a vacancy triggered by the departure last month of Anne Fennessy, the press secretary. Fennessy was replaced by deputy Jordan Dey, and Dunn was hired to replace Dey.

Fennessy left amid turmoil over allegations by former deputy press secretary Susanne Albright that Lowry had sexually harrassed her. Lowry denied the allegations, but on Wednesday promised never to pat, hug or kiss employees again.
