We're pleased to announce that Robin Givhan will be returning to Washington soon to cover Michelle Obama and the first family. Robin has long been one of our most graceful and insightful writers, not only on fashion designers but on politicians as well. She won the Pulitzer Prize for criticism in 2006, in part for her work on the public image of powerful people. Now, she'll bring that sharp eye to bear on the cultural and social issues that swirl around the new occupants of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., picking up on the good work begun by DeNeen Brown, who has been our go-to person for several months on the story of the new first lady. Robin will also continue to write about fashion through her Sunday column. DeNeen will focus her attention to stories about people "on the edge" -- the poor, the uneducated, the disenfranchised; and Race in the age of Obama -- looking at how racial mindsets, definitions, are changing.
