From Bob Graham to Larry Cretul: Jill Chamberlin leaving her state job after three decades
by Michael C. Bender | July 22nd, 2010Get those last public record requests in.
Veteran media handler Jill Chamberlin, who is well-skilled in the art of evasion, has a magician’s knack for misdirection and a pretty good sense of humor, says she’s planning her exit from the House speaker’s office around Labor Day.
No replacement yet for her six-figure salary as communications director, but it sounds like probable future House Speaker Dean Cannon is working on bringing Katie Betta over from the Florida Republican Party.
Chamberlin left the newspaper business in ’79 to join Gov. Bob Graham’s office. She’s worked for Treasurer Bill Gunter, CFO Tom Gallagher and FSU President Sandy D’Alemberte.
She worked for one Democratic House speaker, Peter Wallace, and the last three Republicans: Cretul, Ray Sansom and Marco Rubio.
Chamberlin said she plans to kick back for a while up north somewhere – shortly after destroying her Blackberry.
