WASHINGTON--I just read a post at TheWrap.com that questioned why actor Kal Penn was not at work yet at the White House despite news of his new job coming out on April 7.
I just checked and a White House source told me Penn indeed will be arriving; I don't have his start date. Penn will be dealing with Asian-American affairs as an Associate Director in the Office of Public Engagement.
