Check out
this Washington Post profile of Conrad W. Hewitt, "chief accounting guru" for the SEC.
Hewitt, a former managing partner at Ernst & Young,
joined the SEC in July 2006. Hewitt also serves on the boards of some ten different companies, which may bear heavily on his thinking about the controversial Sarbanes Oxley reform package.
The Bush administration, cheered along by the business lobby, has made it clear that rolling back Sarbox is a quiet priority of their last lame duck year. What will happen to SarBox depends quite a lot on Mr. Hewitt...
best get to know him a bit better.
