UC closing in on naming new Lawrence Livermore Lab director
By Jeremy Thomas

The hunt for the 12th director of Lawrence Livermore Laboratory is reaching a conclusion, with an announcement of a selection expected soon from the University of California. At a Board of Regents meeting Wednesday in San Francisco, UC President Janet Napolitano called the months long search "virtually complete," adding that she and regent Norman Pattiz "participated in the candidate interviews last week, and a new director will be announced shortly."

Nuclear Security & Deterrence Monitor -- SPECIAL BULLETIN (3-27-2014)

GOLDSTEIN TAPPED AS NEXT LAWRENCE LIVERMORE DIRECTOR

Longtime Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory official Bill Goldstein will be named the lab’s next director later today, NS&D Monitor has learned. Goldstein, the lab’s Deputy Director for Science and Technology, takes over the top spot at the lab from Bret Knapp, who has led the institution in an acting capacity since Parney Albright abruptly announced his resignation in late October. Goldstein has headed up the lab’s Science and Technology Directorate since 2012. A theoretical physicist, he has worked at the lab for 29 years, playing a large role in the Stockpile Stewardship Program and research activities at the National Ignition Facility. For more information, see tomorrow’s edition of Nuclear Security and Deterrence Monitor.

Interesting and (to me) unexpected choice, Bill is a good guy. He lacks "presence" compared with others, but he's sharp and is actually a human being.
