Published: Monday | September 7, 2009
A Jamaica-born Rhodes Scholar, Peter Blair Henry, will become New York University's first black business dean.
He is to take up the post at the university's Stern School of Business in January 2010.
Henry, who is currently Konosuke Matsushita professor of economics at Stanford University, will bring to his new post more than decade of teaching experience at the Stanford Business School.
He has worked as an adviser to many governments in the Caribbean and Africa and also led United States President Barack Obama's transition team that reviewed multinational lending agencies prior to his inauguration.
