Desiree Rogers, former White House Social Secretary under the Obama administration was named CEO of Johnson Publishing Company (Essence-Jet) in Chicago by Chairman, Linda Johnson-Rice. It is not clear whether the controversy and criticism surrounding Rogers when an uninvited cast member of The Real Housewives of DC was able to crash the Obama administration's first state dinner played a role in her resignation months later. She is a native of New Orleans and a longtime consultant to the Johnson Publishing Company.
