The new Chief Executive Officer of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, Carly Fiorina recently sat down for an interview with Digby Solomon of Williamsburg Watch. Take a moment an give it a read.

What caught my attention was Ms. Fiorina’s affirmation that the foundation seeks to be more “engaged” with the local community while pursuing potential development of hundreds of acres. It’s a topic I happened to write about that around the time she took the reins. This revelation is good to hear because the scope of development that the foundation could unleash would likely transform Williamsburg.
